Last Summer

Edit

Bikini eyes

Fear and trembling

Openness

You said you trust me.

You said you don't know why.

Camouflage

Contact

Splattered paint

Crouching for cover

You told me to watch your back

Rain dance

Sunset

Chased by dogs

Trespass

And a hand in my hand.

Eyelids lined

Lost in the music

Dancing but we never

Stopped talking

You said you were good at hugs

Fun.

You open a wide freckled

Smile and

I don't know if I've ever

Felt like this.

Scattered wheat

Yellow jackets

Fresh breeze

Stiff climb

You told me you were scared

The aching almost

Walking circles over waters

The angst of not being honest with ourselves

You were leaving

We controlled ourselves

In love

But letting go

Because of love.
