girl summer

summer reminds me that i am a girl again

whenever people ask my my favorite season, i always say it's winter 

i like the frigid air and the snow 

but i don't think that winter is always kind to me

it turns me into something cold, hollow, wolfish

i lie under my covers for days on end and growl at people who come near me

my heart ices over 

but summer is familiar 

i get to wear shirts that show my stomach and shorts that hug my thighs without it feeling strange 

giving the sun my skin, saying thank you to the world for my body

i walk across the burning sidewalk, barefoot

as my mother waters the flowers in the garden

spraying the backs of my legs with the hose

i am girl and the warm summer nights make me sweat

but i don't mind it at all
