Do you remember that summer,
We rolled in the grass,
Washing in the sunlight,
Listening to the finches sing their song,
to the trees rustle as the wind pushed the cars along.
All I could smell were the plants,
And all I could see was you,
the shine of a brilliant grin.
Do you remember two summers past,
We laid on that couch,
For hours that seemed like days,
Yet still felt everything but long enough;
I held you in my embrace with intent to never let go.
All I could smell was your hair,
And all I could see were dreams,
visions in my mind, now distant.
Do you remember the summer last,
We started as less than friends;
You took me places I'd never been,
Showed me the world's beauty,
how it is held within the simplest of things.
All I could smell was the salty sea breeze,
And all I could see was the golden threads,
and the ruby, oh so red,
within the brightest light I have ever come to love.
Will you remember the summer next,
And all our traverses through reality;
Stand by my side and I by yours,
Just like when I woke up on that beach,
and you held out your gracious hand
Who am I to say which way this river might flow.
If you know it will separate us, please,
tell me now. Stay here, with me, in this sand.
So, not much of a rhyme scheme. And when I wrote it in the park the other day, It didn't have meter on the page. As I wrote it ere it worked itself out though. Enjoy =]
