it’s 2:30am in nyc and i just heard THUNDER. i missed that soft rumble so much:,) i was ticked i couldn’t fall asleep but then i heard that and suddenly its like i stayed awake for a reason

#not the cracking ones #the quiet ones #the ones that just echo lightly #it reminds me of summer #and my childhood #the 3pm storm that would roll in every afternoon and my family would sit on the porch and watch the dark clouds move in #we would just watch the storm #and it would clear by sunset #and then the sky would just melt #and the birds would come and watch too #a sepia filter was placed over the world #and the reflections! the reflection of the sky off the canal! #the pinks! the oranges! the yellows! #the heat! #and then it’d fade to purples and hues of blue #the first few stars would come out #my dad and i would bike to the beach or sit on the dock to watch the stars #sometimes i’d sneak out and weave my bike through the garages side door #swim in the dark ocean #feel so little #still see the distant dim strobes of lightening and the occasional soft hum of thunder #anyways i miss home #and my dad #my island #my porch #the soft thunder #elle talks
