Intoxicating Summers
Revealing the raw substance of desires
The sun warming us to the Core
Until we’re aching to run ahead
As if our hearts have outgrown our chests
Let me connect
Lean on you in an all-consuming laughter
Joy bursting forth
The simplicity of what is
Being the only requirement for this moment
Let the wind sway us
Conspiring in our mischief
Chilling our skin in contrast to the warmth within
Becoming a haunting potential
Let the music shake us
Spurring us to keep the momentum
Despite the sleepless nights
Share all of it with me
Feeding the fire
As the first rays begin to peek again
Burning away all pretense
Exposing the Core
As the wind pauses to watch
Breathe in
And Begin Again.
