    Missing the sound of summer

    The days we spent playing
    At the park
    Were good times
    I miss the underdogs
    I miss playing in the sand as a family
    Or watching you catch the biggest fish
    But
    Every now and then I have my dreams
    Of those times
    The times we spent as a family
    And after those dreams
    In the summer I swear I can hear the rusty chains squeak
    When no one is on them
    I swear I can here your laughter fill my ears
    I swear I can here my giggling saying higher daddy higher
    I swear I can here mommy in th back round talking but only for minute I hear it all
    And when I do I let a tear fall
    Sometimes I wake to the sounds of the rusty chains squeaking
    And it brings a smile to my face
    But yet
    I let a tear fall
    And yet I ignore the tear that falls
    And I search for the sounds that I love to hear
    The sounds of your voice
    Your laughter
    It reminds me of a balloon
    Full one second and then
    Pop the next you hear a big boom
    And sometimes it makes you jump
    But yet in the end you laugh at what a silly noise does to you
    Well I miss your booming laughter
    How I long to hear it
    And I know I can't
    Makes me hurt
    But most of all I long to hear all the
    Sounds of summer

    In your dreams that is where you hear it, that is more then just a dream. You know what I mean?

    Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
