The Scorching Summer Sun
THE SCORCHING SUMMER SUN
Heat waves are burning breaches through my skin,
Touching my soul and melting me from within,
I dissolve in a puddle of dark brown liquid,
Swimming in my salty sweat like a squid,
The sun is too hot for me to bear it,
If it were possible, I would not spare it,
Now I am at the Sol's receiving end,
How do I stop His flames, how do I defend?
The sultry sun is igniting my frame,
I swelter under his scorching scalding flame,
The torrid hot ball tortures me to tears,
I can't stand his fiery frying warmth that sears,
Perspiring heavily under the summer sun,
I cannot stand or walk, while he is having fun.
