Verano

Maybe it will be different the way we will remember
The summer
The way in which the wind competed with the heat and lost
Remembrance of time lost with things unsaid
Maybe it will be different the way we will remember
The way the mug of chai touched your lips in between words
The taste exchanged with expressions of pain
Creamy spiced pain
Maybe it will be different the way we will remember
The way laughter escaped me in between bites of double chocolate cake
Maybe it will be different the way we will remember
Our shadows closer than our own passive bodies
Maybe it will be different the way I will remember
Five months from now, awaiting another summer
Memories separated from emotions
Thankful for that brief but unforgettable exchange
