29 Years

Today is spectacular, but for some reason, I feel a little melancholy. Maybe it's what I'm listening to. This is The National's Slow Show. Love it.

I feel something similar
to what I felt back then.
The weather is warm
the smell of summer
is rich in the air
in bouts.
And the thought of your face
comes rushing to the back of my eyelids
so frequently
that I see you in
vivid detail
even when I blink now.
