Summer
I remember the summer
Sunny
Fragrant
Simple
Happy.
I fell in love with the smell of lilac blossoms
I fell in love with the smell
With the breeze
And the sunlight.
It was simple. Easy. Natural.
I knew who I was.
I was happy, though I never gave it
Much thought.
My room
Now
Smells almost like the summer
Because the candle I lit, small and purple
Smells like lilacs.
Almost.
It almost smells like happiness
Like friendship
Like hope
For the future.
It almost
Smells like home.
Almost.
