Sweet Summer Days


Fisch

Recommended Posts

I was betrayed in the summertime and this poem is one of many that came from it:

 

Is it pain that we all wanted

on those sweet summer days

when glory was an afterthought

to passion?

When we forgot ourselves

underneath the shade

of willows

avoiding the sun

weary

and slow to think

the breeze

cooling

beneath loose garments

and the only discomfort

is the hot breath of a lover

on your neck

Steven interpereted it in the way I did as well. I wanted for the poem to convey how I saw my ex after she cheated and left me. Thanks for the feedback. Ailec is right though, the ending is sweet. I am sure she is having a nice time, guiltless in her actions.
