"Summer Conversation"

summer came and
we wasted days away
slowly sipping on the coolness
of our delivered just desserts
i smile a small smile
and for a moment
release my troubles into the breeze
lean back and listen to you speak
what should we talk about
but the endless cycle of days
of our lives
and what should we do
but laugh in forgotten bitterness
over the idiosyncracies of fate
which have brought us here
yes,
for now, let us talk irrationally
and say the damndest things
and just be the children we
never were for a few moments
and sip slowly on the bittersweet
coolness, the intricately delicious
rewards of our just desserts
the sunlight of summer came
let our hearts shine too.
