Those nights

                        Those nights

Summer! 
Summer! Summer!
Summer is wrapping up, winding down, slipping out of our finger tips.

But I remember those nights, the blazing sun gave me no hope, the heat didn't appeal to me. The moon glazed over the world, the shadow swaddled me like an innocent child discovering the whole universe.

Days spent fondling with loneliness, 
nights spent infatuated with security. Long drives with the sky flooding with diamonds! Light pollution the enemy no where in site. The sky was screaming to me, it enchanted me with its true beauty.

At first it was overwhelming, I let my arm dance with the wind, the faster the car went the more enchanting it was. The song was playing "1979" by Smashing Pumpkin, his voice ran through me like electricity. My arm, my head my whole body was being wrapped by the wind, it was...
Beautiful

I wanted to catch all the beauty at once but it wouldn't fit in my small palms. Its ways too precise to keep, to fragile to hold. All we can do is admire it which is a beautiful privilege!


"My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst. And then I remembered to relax, and try not to hold on to it. Then it flows through me like rain and I cant feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid life"
