next summer

Do you think we could fall in love again next summer?
Like a warm breeze that swiftly moves through the seasons embracing for the cold winter ahead.
We would sit among dewy grass blades and walk along the chilled sand from a secluded beach as the moon rises.
Splash and swim around in chilly water.
Lay between wildflowers and bees in the woods somewhere, talking about everything and nothing.
Listen to the calming flow of a freshwater river buried deep in the wild mountains.
Staring up at the sky, bewildered by the emerald canopy of trees nestling us in their shade. 
A sweet song serenading the climate, notes of gumtree and musk from a crackling fire hang in the air.
Birds chirping in nearby nests, the sound of children giggling and playing.
Here, beneath the warm sun rays, it dances on your skin marking soft freckles along your perfect rosy face.
Your laughter is something i will never grow weary of, as the trees grow more leaves and the cold nights melt away.
I want to feel your arms surrounding me again as the day turns into night, the sun drifts away and the sky gets darker, glittered with a million stars, so beautiful yet it could never compare to you. 
I long to embrace you under those sparkly celestial bodies, once more feel your love wrapping around me, immersing me in a warm daydream.
I know it will end, all things end. 
but this i would like to stay forever the same,
Because a soul like yours is worth loving.
