Summer is delirious days

we are packed

on a bus

for days of adventures

mountain biking

then swimming.

We will jump off cliffs

into rivers

flip-flopping through the air

Tomorrow is the day we don’t know. 

Yesterday was the day we can’t fix. 

But what is today? 

Today is the future of yesterday. 

Losing someone you love,

hollows out a part of you.

One day, you have them,

and the next,

you’ll never see them again.

The realization stings,

worse than the sun's engulfing hug.
