Celia

Don't let yourself burn

Army officer keeping secrets,
Deep sea diver holding breath,
And lots of boys boys boys
But after all they’re all children
Playing by or avoiding the ocean
While I look on applying 50SPF lotion

(2015)

Dating on an island. I wish sunscreen could help me avoid all the potential ways I could be burned.
