Happily, Darkness

The sun is up for far too long
August has far too many days left
But when the sun goes down it gets a little easier
Dreams are a little less fickle than the smoky day sky
I can draft all sorts of lines that I won't share
And stay inside, lidded eyes
Music can help the time pass
Until the sky is dark gray
Perhaps blue gray
But I don't have to look closely
All the buts can't be seen
Because there isn't enough light
