Rainy Goodbyes

On your porch that evening, we sat together,
Hiding from the rain under the cozy shelter
of your porch, we savored caramel-covered apples.
Yet, a subtle tension lingered in the air.
We sensed it but were hesitant to talk about it,
being aware.

But then you said it, and time seemed to freeze,
I dissolved into memories, lost in the past with ease.
Our first meeting at the gas station,
Our first awkward moment at the party.

June was bright and happy with you by my side,
You were the person I sought, a truth I couldn't hide.
You turned my summer into a beautiful scene,
And now, saying goodbye, it shatters me from within.

In July, we were inseparable,
being ourselves and relishing,
Enjoying campfire evenings,
stories under the stars' embellishing.

Remember when, at dawn, I came to you,
and you ran barefoot across the field?
You didn't wear shoes because you
were afraid to wake up your dear grandmother.
And then we drove miles for a gift for her.
I remember how tightly she hugged me
and told me to call her grandma.
On that day, I didn't want to leave
your warm home, so I kept delaying.

Do you recall singing our favorite song
by the sea at sunset?
And that night, confessing our love,
a moment we'll never forget.

But my favorite day was in August.
When I climbed through your window
and fell from the tree.
You rushed out of the house in fear,
but I smiled at you.
You lay down beside me on the ground
and held my hand.
We lay there for hours,
watching the stars in silence.

But soon, everything changed, we drifted apart,
Missed something,
failed to understand each other's heart.
And today, we must admit, our time is done,
But I'll always cherish with love,
the memories of our summer, our sun.
