i never promissed you a happy ending.
you never said that you wouldn’t make me cry
but summer love will keep us warm,
long after our autumn goodbye


amazing friends; summer nights;
chocolate ice cream; mud slide fights;
half the summer is gone already
so lets spend the rest of it
slow & steady


[summer] is where the -girls- go |barefoot|
& their [hearts] are /just as free/ as their toes


in every girls life; there’s a boy she’ll never forget
&& a summer where it all began


live for the summer love and when the water just hits
your feet among the sand, even when the nights turn
cold its not as cold as the one in your hand


there is no “we” in summer. only u and me

What a beautiful, sunny morning. It makes you happy to be alive, doesn’t it? We can’t let the sun outshine us! We have to beam, too.

No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace as I have seen in one autumnal face.
John Donne
