she's golden retrievers smiling in the july sunlight. the way your fingers tingle before you open a present. that nervousness as you send a text to your crush. hysterical laughter until your chest hurts and you can't breathe. falling into bed after a long day. petting a strangers dog on the street. late nights running on the street with your best friends. the sound of brand new headphones. when your lips are chapped and the relief that comes after applying lip balm. she's drawing and having the finished piece look perfect. the way your voice echos in a large, empty room. the fascination with a beautiful painting. the smell of honeysuckle in june. cool breezes on a hot summer day. swimming. flowers.
