There comes a point where you just love someone,
not because they're good or bad.
You just love them the way they are.

sitting around I do a lot of
Heaven will be much like it
I tell myself

here we all have given up on the weather forecast
wearing raincoats, hats, and wellington boots
and wasted money on sunblock cream
all par for the course this year.
The nights are getting darker and longer
fifteen minuets either end each day
which we are used to, kind of,
with autumn just around the corner
and winter hiding in her hair, this summer
this summer never really had a chance.
