Missing love in summer

The days are longer
The nights are shorter.
Temperatures are rising
Children are playing.
Summer has arrived.

The sky is blue.
The grass is green
The sun is red.
On this hot summer day.

I sit here in thought.
While though it’s hot.
With children playing
My heart is raining.

I sit here thinking.
On what I’m missing.
With a child like innocence
I’m missing your presence.

What is summer?
Without a lover
It’s like life
Without colour.

I know I’ll see you shortly.
It’s all I can think of lately.
While I count down the days
Hoping summer stays.
