THE LAST SUMMER, THE LOST SUMMER
Who would've have thought that this day would never show up again,
Looking around I couldn't find anything but some ephemeral moments,
the ice popsicle melting and slipping through my fingers,
like the way I slipped through the cracks of their cold embrace !

The beach walks, the night outs and the strolling around the parks,
the evenings with subtle cold breeze and us frolicking around,
like insouciants living lavishly in their own world,
trynna escape together and be the kings and queens in their castle !

The faces in the photographs stashed in my diary,
with someone giggling, smiling and cackling throught the day,
nobody knew that we'd feel a void inside us that can't be filled,
the sand castles, a painter's painting and a vocalist's melifluous voice would be missed !

The days passed by with the faces disappearing gradually,
the friendship, the love, the togetherness all faded,
now I'm here turning the pages of my diary and reminiscing the last summer,
with a lesson that nobody can meet your expectation of staying forever together !
