summer.

look what we did this summer-

a venture into the unknown territory of growing up (supposedly)-

& the hours of fun playing games-

& the hours of fun meeting friends-

& the hours of fun just

talking

talking

writing

reading

reading

laughing (a little)-

summer.

look not at what wasn’t.

look at what was:

what was:

two years since the break of a friendship,

two years of growth,

two years of epic tales,

two years of happiness,

two years of storytelling.

summer-

this year you didn’t take anything from me.

this year i won the battle.

this year, summer,

i wish like we all do-

i wish

for the never-end of summer.

the never end of that feeling-

that sweat-sticky

ice cream cone

watermelon

sandy shoes feeling;

that bone-chilling

thunderous rumble

pouring rain

soaked feeling;

that safety

watching the raindrops

looking for lightning

roadtrip feeling;

that never-end of summer feeling.

i wish for the most.

***

well…

summer’s over.
