The summer breeze held some memories;
how it would whisk away nightmares and
show me love in the palm of it's hand,
only for a strong breeze to blow the truth away.
I just want to believe that your love was the truth
Maybe the grass did truly want to kiss my heel;
but i don't understand why it chose to bite leaving
raw marks that were a easy expression of hurtful emotion.
no band-aid or neosporin will ever be enough to heel your wounds.
the sun spoke with a fire-tongue
and how i longed to have that heat
for my skin cells to darken and for
me to be the girl you always wanted
a sun kissed lover was your fantasy
sorry i was always a cloudy day.
