remember the first time
you brushed the hair back
from my eyes
it was one of those crazy hot days last July
sand covered our bronzed, bare feet
you leaned into me with kisses so sweet,
and i could barely breathe
we were burning alive
you were the blue,
always changing like the tide
born to love me with all the grace
of a blooming sunrise,
my morning star
we were burning alive
sun and sand,
wind through the palms
we stuck together,
two birds of a feather,
day and night
i loved you for eternity,
my evening song
we were burning alive
Birds of a Feather by Billie Eilish. Her new album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, dropped yesterday! On repeat, particularly this song, which inspired this poem. Such a great album ❤

Hope you had a great weekend! 🙂 i feel bad for people who don’t try to find summer love or at least some type of summer emotional flirtation – it’s really the best. Mike
