I wished I could travel that road,
In the darkest night,
Cars speed by,
The ocean nowhere near,
I still felt the rhythm of the waves,
How I longed to ride them,
Ride them to the sky.

Goodbyes are so hard,
I still cry remembering,
Seeing those friends the last time,
That whole summer was that one song,
I never tired of it

I sailed into the sky,
They wouldn't let me fall,
That’s what friends are for
You can fall and they catch you,
Doing it again and again.

I remember the bittersweet taste,
Lemons and leaving,
Came together.
I only have one question:
Was that the last time?

Never be normal!

Wind,
An intriguing read and I'm sure it is not.

Liz, I like this. It made me think about riding waves like in a car.

Beautiful words Wind. I especially appreciate THE song, a song that completely captures the spirit of the summer and how we never tired of it. I hope it isn't the last time, and that you see those friends again and always have their support.
