A Season To Remember
Summer slips from our fingers,
a child in motion,
unaware of endings,
like lovers lingering at the door,
dreaming the night might last
one moment more.
We chased fireflies
into dusk-lit theaters,
hands buttery with popcorn,
hearts unwritten.
August is cruel,
stone fruit, warm and bruised,
a sky that refuses to soften.
But only summer sings.
No anthem of autumn,
no ballad of spring.
It hums in our bones,
each beat stitched to a name
we no longer say,
a soundtrack
to our forgetting
and our return.
