A Tale of Summer


 Once upon a time many summers ago...

With the sun's heat,
Two hearts beat,
A love story untold.

But we'll never know which graphite
Will turn into diamonds,
So we collect stones
Until we learn our lessons.

So we ended up trying,
Forgetting what we still remember.
Creating spaces for the afterglows and embers,
But sparks no longer come by flying.

Someone from a long time ago,
A lover in a past,
Strings that didn't last,
A stranger that my heart knows.
