August nights, and life is coursing through my veins again
Upbeat songs echo through my ribs, and my friends’ laughter eases my breaths and lights me up inside
Summer is thrumming with energy, standing next to me
She’s dancing her life out, and I’m watching mesmerised
I whoop with joy, and sling my arm around my friends shoulders
We turn off the lights to dance, and rush through chocolate ice cream
I pour my heart out to my cousin and have her bleed on me
Electrified, I make travel bucket lists when invited to
Try my hardest to put love down on my art pad
Write songs that only exist to comfort
Make plans to run away in stolen cars
August nights pull out memories hidden under my tongue
I am young and alive
[i wrote all of these one night when i couldnt sleep. august is one hell of a month]
