Welcome to Summer

There is the silence in the atmosphere,
Of a late morning, fan humming in our ears.

There are those hot, restless nights when we keep our eyes open squinting at the large four digits that represent the time,

Our fingers swiping screens across multiple social networks, our minds not able to let our eyes fall.

Colors are vividly luminous, the sun beats down on our skin, rays digging into our pores.

The fiery blaze causing desires and fears to ignite inside of us in those long, dark nights. Our sweat latches onto us like leeches, clothes sticking to our skin, trickling off our limbs.

Time fly’s, fly’s, fly’s away and time is running together. Seconds, minutes, hours melting together, molding themselves to each other.

Secrets come to light, hearts are wild, and the world is sizzling.

Look at the diamonds in the cerulean sky. They unite and form pictures, scenes for us, and tell us stories.

Everything is bright and bold; blinding us.

We all thrive and dance in the same sweltering, smoldering fire.

Welcome to Summer.
