In This Diary

The Ataris

Here in this diary I write you visions of my summer. 
It was the best I ever had.
There were choruses and sing - alongs
and the unspoken feeling of knowing that
right now is all that matters.
 
All the nights we stayed up talking
listening to 80's songs,
and quoting lines from all the movies that we love. 
It still brings a smile to my face.
 
I guess when it comes down to it.
Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up.
These are the best days of out lives. 
The only thing that matters is just following your heart
and eventually you'll finally get it right.
 
Breaking into hotel swimming pools 
and wreacking havoc on our world.
Hanging out at truck stops just to pass the time. 
The blacktop singing me to sleep.
 
Lighting fireworks in parking lots
illuminating the blackest nights.
Cherry cokes under the moonlit summer sky.
2015 Riverside it's time to say goodbye.
 
Get on the bus, it's time to go.
