Start of summer

 


It was the start of summer

and all the birds would sing.

The colours were blinding,

flowers smelled enticing,

and the way your perfume shaped the air

was like the perfect layer of icing

on the cake of a loved-up summer fair.

We didn't have a worry, not a thing,

carefree hearts could do anything.

 

We saw the sights, explored the sands.

Made love under the moons lustrous light

as we never let go of each other's hands.

It was so hot, the passion of a raindrop

sizzling upon our skin. A feeling

you couldn't top as we embraced

the summer storms and their fiercest lightning.

 

The memories were like houses

built of photographs, stacked so high,

we could barely reach the top.

But we couldn't stop,

we kept collecting more,

kept demanding more.

We wanted the stories to pour,

we wanted a world of recollections

that we could explore.

Until all we had

was a tower of memories

without any door.

 

We had forgotten

what love was really about,

we just kept amassing stories,

but they were starting

to feel watered down.

We only had a lust for more,

It didn't matter what it was,

we just wanted it plastering

on our Instagram walls.

The tower wobbling in the wind

the foundations paper thin,

blustery winds were kicking in

and soon it would fall.

When the end of summer

came to call.
