Summer Love

Summer Love

A Poem by Joshua J. Certain

Summer time creeps her light warm touch on my skin

Lets me remember when I saw brighter days

In the last summer that was hidden away

As I would stay inside with her voice in my ear

I would love to hear the things she would say

And listen to her voice like watching some extravagant play

She would touch me with words

Each syllable a song in verse

A thousand miles could never be the judge

We were in the moment

So stupid in love

Now she is gone and another summer has come

Without her I will grief and come undone

Or I can hide away the tears I want to cry so bad

And smile for the moments that we had

The days when she would laugh

At my impersonation of Disney's past

She Would sit silenty

With each breath so real, so lovely

This summer has begun alone

I wonder about this girl I once have known

Maybe her summer will find the love she needs

I hope this summer I can find peace to finally breathe

Your use of language is quite traditional, you use free verse in a subtle, very lovely form. The word 'Disney' jumped out of me, yet seemed appropriate even though so near to your formed ' She Would sit silently' (btw you omitted the second 'l')

This is such a finely created area and very romantic without being frilly, 'She would touch me with words ~ Each syllable a song in verse ~ A thousand miles could never be the judge ~ We were in the moment ~ So stupid in love'
