"Augusta"

[reallyjulie]

I am waiting for a savior, or beauty or understanding, or Summer

I am still where I have been for at least a hundred years

You remember the day when in a dark apartment we sat

While the outside glowed green
and the sprinklers turned clockwise
and the pool was closed
and you played guitar
and I closed my eyes

Laid back listening to the music

The song moved me to tears

As he mentioned "All of Summer in a Day"

I cried for that girl who lived on 2424 Persimmon Rd

I wanted to run down those Augusta streets until I found her and pulled her out of the
dark
locked
closet

I could see her striped t-shirt
and those blue eyes
that looked to big for her face

She was crying
She was waiting
for a savior, or beauty, or understanding, or summer
