The pale winter sunlight slipped through the window this morning, soft and hesitant, as if it still lingered over something left unsaid. Outside, snow blanketed the cold rooftops, and people laughed and posed beneath the faint white sky a scene of picture- perfect happiness. Yet, behind every burst of laughter, there was a quiet pause, a fragile silence where my heart gently recalled a summer that hadn’t quite ended.
A Taste of Salt and Bright Sunshine
You know, that Brighton summer felt like a dream just within reach, distilled with the taste of salt and bright sunshine.
Waves crashed relentlessly against the shingle, the sea breeze tangled in our hair, and miraculously, amidst the crowded noise, we still found each other. We glided through the narrow, cobbled streets of The Lanes beautiful labyrinths that led to tiny art exhibitions. The late afternoon light brushed across the paintings, and I vividly remember that feeling, much like the look in someoneâs eyes that could make you forget to breathe.
A simple, tender melody drifted from some seaside cafĂŠ. Now, that tune still lingers in my mind, sweet as a kiss that never truly fades. I often wonder if the simplest things are the ones we remember the longest.
We rarely needed many words. The warmth from that other hand, the distant roar of children on the giant wheel, and the shared understanding while watching the long shadows of the sunset over the beach were enough to banish every worry.
When the Season Folds Itself Away
The summer eventually folded itself away, slowly, like a letter being sealed. It took with it the last buzz of cicadas, the melting strawberry ice cream on the tongue, and our final, lingering glance before the sudden rain arrived.
Then winter came gentle but cruel ouching every memory with cold hands. Sometimes, I wonder if I miss the season, or the person I was in those sun-drenched days.
But here is the beautiful truth: even when the thick snow has covered everything outside, deep inside my heart remains the profound blue of Brightonâs sea, the laughter carried by the wind, and the warmth of a hand once held softly, yet firmly, and for a lifetime.
Perhaps every love eventually becomes a season it passes, but it always leaves its unique flavor behind. And even now, sitting in the quiet of winter, I still smile remembering that summer the season of light, of breath, and of someone who made my heart melt like sunlight on sand.
