The End of June and Things

My face filled with freckles, my hot and humid week coming to an end.
You seem so far away, farther than Utah. Out of my reach away from my arms.
Although I feel this lump of pain creeping up my throat, I can't help but remember
being sick in bed for days with you, getting help studying for finals and endless
nights and mornings spent with you. I am strong enough to overcome this,
I finally have pride in who I am and no one can take that from me,
even the one I truly loved.
So as my skin darkens and my Summer flies away, if you aren't there,
I will continue to live like I always do. Through the falling leaves
and snow and back again, I have no doubt I will breathe and keep
breathing.
