Summer Song

The last fleeting moments of an epilogue
Summer set in motion and pulled you along
The last thing you said wasn't "if" but "when"
The walls cave in
And I was prone to listen
And listen I did

The last drowning ocean lived in a paradox
The lost emotion lived inside a box
That you didn't have the key for
And you didn't know where either
So you sat around
And around I-

Came waving hands
Wiggling fingers to entrance
Strange broken laughs
And empty feelings to forget
Crestfallen hearts, wriggling tendrils made of glass
Sweet, summer love
Someone has to make it last

The few torn pages of an epigraph
The tales they would tell us to get us to laugh
It wasn't so much a sign as it was a cry
To listen to me while I am young
And I'll say the day the sun-

Came waving hands
Wiggling fingers to entrance
"Where did you go, what took you so long to get back?"
Yet saving tears
Holding grace long enough to laugh
"Where's the rest of you, are you leaving so fast?"

And even with all this time
The only part that's free is what we breathe
And even though you are fine
It still makes me sad to see you leave
So don't please

The last fleeting moments of an epilogue...
