standing there with you,
one
        last
                summer
                                sunset
that sidewalk was eternal.
until it wasn't and
July lasted forever,
those five days lasted longer,
the world stayed golden-sweet
for as long as it could.
now june is long gone, july has joined it
and september will taste like
strawberry ice cream and heaven
if only I can make it through august
