happiness
How do you describe the feeling
of the first flower flourishing
in the springtime?
What is the word for the warmth you feel
wrapped up in a kind embrace?
The resounding beams
that rests on someone’s face
when they hear sweetness
You mean to tell me someone also knows
all the words to my favorite song?
The summer sun spilled into that car
windows open, Free Bird blaring
driving so fast on those Tennessee backroads
we could crash–we knew–but all we could hear was ourselves
That’s all that mattered in that moment
It was just a few weeks since I saw my her
We held each other like many years had passed,
because they had, we just realized
Memories of the past you look so fondly on
Awaiting the unrepeatable sometime soon,
sometime soon.
The sun’s kiss on a beach in mid-July, a clear sky
A peaceful, sounding rest from sleeping in, a clear mind
I’ll be sure to tell you all about it one day,
I’m still waiting for your call.
