i'm sunburnt
and sleepy
and half drunk

but i don't want this to end
(well, maybe the headache)
i live for summer nights
though i had forgotten what they meant to me

there's something about the peace you feel
when you're chock full of seaweed and salt water
and your skin is burnt
and your head is aching
that's so
nice
refreshing?
relaxing?
it's a reset
it's the perfect way to end a day
and wake up
new again
(though still a little burnt)
