This August I began to dream of drowning.

i have never liked august,

with its hot nights,

too warm to be properly autumn

but still technically not summer anymore,

with its audacity to burst in the door without knocking,

without letting july say goodbye,

taking centre stage with the bug bites

and back-to-school ads.

maybe though,

i don’t like august,

because it is the month i spent without you

and it made me fear for a whole summer,

there would be a summer in the future

i was sure of it,

where i would not be held by you.

there's something about the August rain; it's calming and nostalgic and unsettling. there's this strange feeling that something is about to change.
