seaside // a song

it is 9:00pm on a tuesday and i am sitting in a hotel room on chincoteague island. wolfgang just fell asleep and his sister is with my parents getting ice cream. we will be home in a few days and back to our routine. soon home school will begin again and autumn will slowly ease in. the nostalgia that autumn brings is intoxicating. i am reminded of this song ... it is fitting for now because we are spending our days by the seaside. it also brings back a feeling of youth and excitement for arick and i listened to it often many years ago ... sitting on the floor of his apartment bedroom ... newly in like with one another. i am in awe that i can listen to one song and be taken back to a moment where i felt giddy and smitten by another human. a human i now spend my days with. forever and always.
