there's life within your bones

Infinite.

Barefoot,
feet kissing the warmed pavement.
You walk loosely through the center of streets
throwing caution to the wind.
You turn your chin up to the sun;
that constant friend
that warms but also burns.

Sitting awestruck.
Mouth shamelessly gaping;
smiling like a child.
Your jaw dropping further and further,
as if trying to taste the colors you see
majestically displayed across the black sky canvas.

Weaving and dodging.
Effortlessly flying.
The wind takes a tight grasp of your hair
then fills your lungs with the sweet summer night.
You gaze over the twinkling lights.
Holding fast to your driver,
he shows you your city from new heights.

You smile.


                Infinite.
