Summer’s End

Your glistening brown eyes settle upon mine

Your voice dances through my ears like the gentlest breeze

Your fingertips brush across my hand, making promises you will never keep

The bitterness of bile fills my mouth as I think of everything we will never be

Mingled with the woodsy scent of you—haunting me long after our summer has ended
