Sometime In July

I shouted your name

In a fireworks display

I could hear my own heart beat

Dragging my leg

More useless weight

But no one cared to see

You were looking up

For rockets and love

I could tell that you were free

It’s days like this

Oh in these times

That no one cares to be

If we found love

If we called it a life

I’m not sure what’s still clear

I can’t do another night

Dinning under Roman candle light

With a centerpiece

Of freshly cut tears
