Summer's Lament

I was already drowning but I missed the rain I hate the heat and the way I fall victim to the suns fury He tricks me in spring with his warm rays Enticing me with trickles of light that dance between the blooming trees A waltz of flowers , a delight for my eyes How quickly he turns, a cruel king to carry on summers undoing What was once beautiful becomes dry and withers away
