teen angst drips leisurely from every clause,every verse I read and hear here, like bittersweet honey metaphors pooling on the sidewalk like Summer rain.   >how fitting.sadness and hurt raining on our savage revels of youth that were doomed from the start. I remember watching the Summer rain fog up and blur the car windows as Grandma drove me home on the last day of sixth grade, breathing more freely already, now that the burden of fake smiles and schoolwork was over. I thought back to last summer. Oh,that homely bookshop in Columbus was a reader's paradise. a labyrinth of books,endless fantasy worlds to dive into.I wanted to stay a little longer,just a little more, more, more-- I was so naive . Maybe I still am. But you can't hide behind what isn't real) paper is simply so onionskin thin,and raindrops are so cold and wet and heavy. >We left eventually, strolling back to the hotel in the Summer rain .
