Summers Eve

i wanted to love you like a cold summers’ eve 
after days of intense heat 
like ice cream cones on your bestfriends porch 
and quests through neighborhood kingdoms 
let us cheers to the revolution 
we sure knew how to over...
throw a party 
remember the serpents that slithered through snake valley 
shedding rumors like dead skin 
we became great charmers then 
magically masking mistakes made by miserable mentees 
not creative enough to see the vision 
i wish i could go back to summer 
when dusk held june like a priceless artifact 
wrapped in the newspaper we wrote our dreams on 
july became our starry night 
carefully canvasing the lines i never wanted to cross with you
i did however connect the dots 
and they always led me back home
