i always believed that i was a grain of sand
small
insignificant
bound to be blown away by the wind or
swallowed whole by the shore.
but you.
you came harder than any wind or ocean ever could
and you swept me up,
but for the first time,
it was bliss
you were far more yellow than the mere sand that i am
you were a sunflower
you were a star
now i am still sand but not a grain
i am the beach
i am the protector between the world and a hurricane
i am me and that is enough
and you, my love
you are yellow
