At Summer’s End

And when you left,
I thought my soul left with you.
When we said goodbye,
I felt my heartbreak.
I was lost in the moment,
Alone in that space.

But then something magical happened.
I realized that my soul was still alive in me.
I could even feel my heart mending.
I wasn’t lost or searching for myself.
I wasn’t alone anymore.

My memories of that beautiful summer,
Will never fade away.
You gave me joy and hope and love.
For that I’ll forever be grateful.

I’ll look up at the stars and think of your smile.
I’ll look to the moon and think of your words.
The summer is over, but my heart goes on.
I’m glad I shared it with you.
