piningfemlock:

there are so many different kinds of summer. there are bookstore summers, where you spend your time paging through hundreds of novles, wrapped in the cool, comforting gloom between shelves

there are ocean summers, when your shoulders are chronically sunburned and your hair grows soft from saltwater and every dream you have begins with you turning into a sea siren

there are urban summers, the ones that ring out with basketballs bouncing on cracked courts and taste like popsicles from an ice cream truck, heat trembling up from the concrete and flushing your cheeks to a sharp pink

there are road trip summers, where you meet a girl at a rest stop in the middle of nowhere and she draws you a map of her own, the nights drenched with stars and cicadas, your hands smelling of gasoline

there are falling-in-love-for-the-second-time summers, when you’re different than you were the first time, when you know who you are and what you want, when she does not scatter your thoughts into a giddy swirl but grounds you to earth, making you feel more deeply and more calmly than you ever thought you could

 there are lightning summers, the ones that take your breath away; electric with love, thunderous with it
