I miss...

I miss that summertime feeling.

The feeling you get when you spend the whole day outside. You feel the cool of the morning, the too-hot of the early afternoon, the relief when it cools in the evening, and the reach-for-your-sweater kind of feeling when it gets really cool at night.

I miss freezing in a tent all night, but waking up in the muggy, almost can't breathe temperature in the morning.

I miss walking around in morning-damp grass.

I miss laying in the grass at night with someone you kinda sorta like, and the crazy rush of not knowing what will happen next.

I miss falling asleep on the beach to the sound of the water. I miss the anxious feeling you get when it sounds like the water is too close to your tent.

I miss dancing on picnic tables.

I miss the rush of swinging, when you feel like there's so much in the world to be hopeful for.

And have those moments where you feel like life just couldn't get any better than this.
