The Boy I Met in Summer

His smile was bright

As bright as the sun

His teasing light

Making me laugh every time

His laugh was beautiful

Pure and joyful

He walked slowly

Trying to match my pace

He looked at me

As if I was the most beautiful thing

He held my hand

As if it would easily break

He hugged me

As if afraid to let me go

He loved me

Unconditionally

But our love

Young as it was

Did not last for long

He left

And I left

But I will forever

Keep him in my heart

That boy I met in summer
