i long for the warm summer sun to gently caress my face
but for now ill have to settle for the cold winter wind cutting me through like a knife
cold rain falling down my cheeks instead of the tears threatening to break the dam
but no one knows
other than strangers on the internet
i long for the flowers that paint the fields bright shades of rainbow
and infuse the air with the intoxicating sweet scent that only may flowers bring
but for now ill have to settle for the dreary drag of the winter months
with its gray-toned browns and greens
there’s a word for this
i came up with it a long time ago
its called
summersick*
like homesick
but summer
*can also be called seasonal depression ** if severe enough
**if you have people pleasing tendencies, this will make it much worse
