Summer Nights

The knife cutting air rips against my skin,
reminding me this is reality.

I never knew this day could come,
It never seemed possible.

Why couldn't you be a normal boyfriend?
Why couldn't you break my heart?

The snow covered earth,
Chills my bare feet.

Winter a perfect time,
For grief to consume a person.

Memories of us,
come to mind.
In this meadow, of time.

We laughed and we loved,
in this very place.

Your hand so warm comforted me,
all those summer nights.

Now your gone.
Like the summer.

Winter came and killed everything.
The leave, the flowers, even the trees.
It made a mistake of taking you too.

Sadness pushing me to my knees,
It's hard to stand without you by my side.

Cancer, it doesn't happen to normal people.
Or so I thought.

Tear falling remind me, of you.
How could I move on and forget?
Moving on seem difficult, when four years you were mine.

Sirens wailing in the air,
make my mind tick.

Looking for me,
All I want is to be alone.

"How are you doing?"
A question I cannot stand.
How am I doing?
My love died,
taking my heart with him.

I am broken, shattered.
Can I love again?
No.

My mind seems to find rest, as the icy snow cuts into my back.
Rest, I wanted rest.
Eyes drifting shut,
A imagine lulls me into eternal peace.

You, me, and our meadow.
The summer nights will never end.
