Summer Fire - Ruth

I don’t want to flip.

I don’t want to forget,

how we got this far.

I don’t want to lose sight,

of desert and sunlight,

and all of the space that lays between us.

You can have me if you want to,

you can love me if you want to,

so break me if you have to.

At last I am alone,

but I feel closer than where we started from.

All this could be,

bigger than numbers,

and clearer than we can see.

Summer go so slow,

that I can walk with you,

that I talk to you and my heart settles.
