Lily
November 4, 2022
To the girl with beautiful brown curly hair
Brown eyes are as incredible as the dark spruce that grows all around us
Small and delicate but more resilient than the flowers that come back to bloom every spring in my grandmother's garden
I want to whisk you away and protect you from the world
Though I know you are capable of everything I'm not
You are stronger than I and you always have been
You are my girl in red
If we cannot be together I hope deep down I'll be your best friend
There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do for you
More gorgeous than the flower you share a name with and stronger than September winds
My gorgeous Lily, I love you

I wrote this about a girl I liked in 7th to 9th grade. She held a special place in my heart and always will be one of my closest friends.
