Summer Love
By No Child Is Innocent Once Born •
The stars shone down from above
As together we made love.
Your skin was soft, your mouth was wet
I remember everything even yet.
You held me close and you held me tight
You kept me safe all through the night
I yearned for you and you yearned for me
As nature sang its melody.
It felt so good, it felt so right
Lying there that summer night
I woke the next morning, sun in the sky
But you weren’t there, I wonder why.
When did you leave, why did you go
My mothering mind still wants to know.
I stare out the window at the passers by
And let out a sigh while our baby cries.
