Babes, mom. I gotta look cool.
i love you in the mornings/ and i love you in the nights/ i love you in between the sheets/ and i love you standing in the lights
you’re full of soft lines and hard edges/ the curls at the nape of your neck/ the broadness of your shoulders/ all enough to make me a wreck
You’re the only muse to me/ enough to inspire a lifetime/ together we learn to live and to love/ do you promise to be forever mine?
my vision is blackening/ my head is floating in the air/ waiting to be sunk down/ nobody is here to care
catch me as i’m falling/ i ask, scream, shout/ the only response is the wind/ i crash no doubt
I wrote this at a time when I hurt so much but couldn’t let you know because you were to blame. You were hurting me to the point of me screaming in the shower and pulling out my hair. Since ceasing all communication, I’ve begun to sing in the shower and love myself more than you ever could. You taught me about judgment through your faulty actions, so I took that and learned to stop judging so harshly. I’ve grown so much more without you, and I thank god for that. If all I need is to burn what’s left of you, then so be it because I deserve to be able to. I’ve learned to love so much more deeply and live without doubting myself since I’ve stopped talking to you. I’ve finally stopped screaming and crying and pulling. I’ve finally been truly happy.
summer nights and thick air/ no fireflies, but mosquitoes bite/ yet we kiss away any welts/ along with the thought of morning lights
our hair reflects off the fire/ as mine swings around my shoulders/ our cups sloshing from laughter/ moments couldn’t be any golder
to think august has come/ and crossed the horizon/ i know soon the future will too/ the thought make our chests tighten
for now, it’s you and me/ the ease of summer may fade/ but let’s cherish the moonlight now/ for we are stardust and forever made
everything is all so green/ i paint the world in various shades/ the hues bounce around the atmosphere/ from the oak trees to the grass blades
the pages in my book flip/ the wind shuffles them around/ the aroma flits up to my nose/ from where i lay on the ground
my steeping tea cools in the air/ the steam is hit by the crisp sky/ i imagine a kite drifting above/ and read on to the next line
Stagnant we remain throughout the summer/ we blush and lean together/ yet it’s not our old solid connection/ New ties ensure we remember
We sound like a taylor swift song/ the ones that end sans another/ a broken record that begins each call/ every night and one more note stutters
Until we update our outdated machine/ still missing the worn, loved dents and scratches/ but grants us a tune-up/ to create our new song with patches
the summer is here/ the summer of a thousand things/ the summer of love/ the summer of tethers and strings
the rain doesn’t skip a beat/ the thunder rolls on in/ the skies fill with grey/ and lets the sun go for a swim
the gap between the clouds come/ and it breaks apart the storms/ the floods all halt/ and towards the ground, bugs swarm
the summer is here/ and i step outside/ the smell of grass and rain greet me/ the season where all senses collide
