Hey summertime on the coastline is brillant,

We walked hand in hand down the beach,

Our toes dug graves in the sand with each step.

These are the momentss I never want to forget.

Hey Summertime sing to me a melody,

I wanna go back cause it's raining all day.

I thought you should know I loved that girl,

But it's a shame she had to skip town on me.

My heart was a paradise filled with sun,

Now it's just raining all day long.

I wanna feel how I felt in her arms,

I wanna feel what it's like with a mended heart.

3 years ago I had this girlfriend,

she made me smile like my brother would,

But now my brother's dead she was the only one left,

So picture my heart when I found out she left.

I'm a surplus of emotions with nowhere to go,

I keep standing in the spotlight, but no one will show,

So I'm curing my cancer with another cigarette,

Tell me God how could you forget.

I wanna fly like I did back when,

You had the heart my hands were in,

But I'm not gunna live in the past,

***** all the memories that couldn't last....

  1. I like how you use repitition in the first two stanzas with "Hey Summertime."  If you could incorporate this throughout the rest of the poem, it would be good lyrics to a song.  Good job!  


  2. Really lovely....I smiled when i read it...=)

  3. Wow that's really good, you could make it into a song too.  

  4. As usual you are improving by leaps and bounds. Yoiur emotions are more to the point . Thgey seem to express more easily their hidden sorrow.

    In general the music of pathos, the rhythm and even the rhyme in the 2nd half has improved considerably. As a result we appreciate your emotions of love and sorrow in a distinct way.

    As usual again the last two lines of the poem speaks of anew beginning and new start. The poet does not want to live in the past , nor thesad memories of days gone by. This is a great break-through in the purity of emotions and raising them up.

    Each stanza has its own  meaning and a wound andbound story to tell, which like everytime may certainly be paraphrased .
