She belongs to the wind and rain,
Yet comes out of the dark like a whirling sandstorm,
She is felt most easy in the desert,
She herself feels hard,
Her skin is like the softest and most brown of leathers,
Her tongue bites more than her teeth,
Her hair coils around me like snakes,
Grasping popsicles, we head off,
To the sand,
She’s not done with me yet.
She’s my protector and my light and my stamp collection.
Treat yourself.
I want to date someone like her,
For she is Summer.

I am Young, She is Young,
The Night Is Young.

“Bitch” on her tongue drips like honey,
One eye is fire, the other is ice,
One arm is a mountain, the other a river,
She is not balanced well,
She can be an inferno,
And quite the asshole,
She can fear the inferno,
And yet,
I want to date someone like her,
For she is Summer.
