Summer Sadness

Just let me hold you
To breathe in all you can be,
So calmly
A tragedy on global proportions,
This distance
To breathe in the hours,
Like a lavender musk
Heavy and damp, but sweet
Sprawl out, on the cool late summer grass
Under the angry orange sky
Locked in eternity
But with you,
I breathe
Thick and placid, and warm
So still the moments pass over
The cicada chorus dies
As the amber disk slides
Below the horizon
The darkness silhouettes
Every movement
And I,
Breathe

I write for the same reason I breathe, it's the only thing keeping me alive...
