You were the only one who could ever make me laugh and giggle unabashedly. You were the wind that swept my inhibitions away. You were the only one who ever made me happy. You were the only one whom I'd ever do those crazy things with. Remember how we'd dance on the field in school at six a.m. in the morning, underneath the moon and the many stars, kicking the morning dew up and how you'd catch me up by the waist and swing me round, round, round till all I could see was a blur? That blur was Paradise. Remember how we'd run and leap off from the ground into the bathing pool when the days got too hot? When I was flying through the air and everything whooshed by so fast, that blur was Paradise. Remember how we'd visit the woods behind your house, when the canopy of leaves shaded us from the sunlight and daffodils and daisies bloomed everywhere? Remember how we'd perch on the fallen log which was covered in moss and mark out imaginary X-spots and pretend that there was buried treasure inside?Eternal boy of summer, where are you?
