"He found her most beautiful not when she was all fancied up,
but when she wasn’t.
When she was lying on the carpet, her hair all over the place
(you could say it was a cute mess)
laughing about something that had happened years ago.
When she wasn’t trying to impress anyone,
at that moment when she was just her.
When all her high, hard to clim over,
walls that she had built for most people were down,
that was when he really couldn’t take his eyes off of her."
