Everyday I reserve a moment
to picture you
to imagine us
to feel your heart
which I know well is
still embedded into my own
I'm aware these few moments of my day can lead to nothing
but troubles, & heartache
because when I open my eyes
you're there
god knows where
& I'm here, nowhere
When I stop to think about why I still take my time to think about you
I can only come up with the reasoning that I still love you
I always will love you
even now, six months later
after the damage is done
after the tears have fallen for so long
I'm worried they may have seeped their way into my heart
Even with the knowledge
of the gut wrenching
heart altering pain
our love brought into my
all dancing and daisy life
even past the break,
the moment I knew the love of my life was never
coming home
I would do it all again
over & over & over
&over
again
just for a taste of that sensation
of us
lying barely clothed wrapped in your embrace
for just a glimpse of
your abysmal brown eyes
for a minuscule moment
of our epic love story
I just thought you should know
there's never regrets in this hallow hallway of my heart
only stubborn love
that grasps at a chance
for one more try

Oh those long summer nights
Usually spent in the backyard with smoke in the air
And old country music mixing in with the laughter

Everyone’s smile is as big as the summer sun
From roasting marshmallows to driving on old backroads at early hours
And staying up all night just to see the sun rise

Oh the sweet summer sun
I’ll never stop wishing for the tan lines we get
to last forever and ever
Spending all day on those bluffs
The rush you get when you jump into the cool lake water for the first time will probably never get old

Summer is the love of my life
It brings an abundance of happiness to my life
And just the word makes me feel all warm inside
The best memories I’ve made have been during that wonderful time
