Summer Silhouette
Holly Szurczynski 1977
A silhouette so real,
future in disguise,
summer night breeze,
an image so mezmerized.
Long nights of hope,
moon light upon us,
take whats in store,
hold it, and trust.
No room for mistakes,
of a life so real,
take in every breath,
a future to steal.
A picture perfect world,
is what is played,
hope is upon us,
in that moment I stayed.
Summer silhouette,
memories I hold,
I believe in summer nights,
the silhouette I stole.
