summer air, freedom, and you
– butterflies rising
‘summer air, freedom, and you’ is a quote by the author butterflies rising that is derived from her poem ‘to be free, and to be against yours’:
as the summer sets in
and as this moment softens all
the fear between us,
there are only two things i need
to feel in this skin…
to be free, and to be
against yours
The quote and poem were pieces that butterflies rising wrote about her first love. In the early summer, their relationship was going through an unsettling time where both her and her boyfriend were struggling with their fears about each other and their connection, and she wrote this poem as a wish for what she wanted. ‘summer air, freedom, and you’ was a quote she pulled out of the poem to summarize the wish. Both the quote and poem are in her poetry book ‘wild spirit, soft heart’ and the quote is included in her poetry inspiration journal, ‘go where you breathe free’.
