I'm craving summer something fierce.
summer fling
he's just a boy who fell in love with summer
but he's also an evil, cruel, wizened old man - cold, unforgiving
he's icy and murdering and he fell in love with the fine-boned summer
summer, who laughed and sparkled
summer, who was warm and rushing and flitting
summer, who was a fairy or a firefly
summer, who was fragile and vulnerable and always left
summer, who never stayed
he's winter, that cruel, harsh murdering iceman
he stayed, he stays, he always does
he fell in love with summer and he choked her between his icy claws
he dripped forgotten toys and lost scarves and cold water on her,
summer, who could always forgive him for killing her
summer, who was fine-boned and perfect
summer, who was warm
he's winter, freezing, unthawing
he stole her away, he stole summer away
he offered her a pomegranate and hoped she'd stay
but he didn't know, no, he didn't know
he didn't know that summer, that elusive temptress,
he didn't know that summer would be poisoned and tainted
by his rains and fogs and looming disaster
summer, who was beautiful
summer, who was warm
summer, who he fell in love with
he's just a boy, a silly, cold little boy, who fell in love with summer
summer, who never stays
he's just a boy who lives to chase summer.
