night the ocean
soft waves
    of the velvety darkness
       and i can feel
   the
       damp
  coolness
     wash over me.
    the stars glistening
               like
    the whitecaps in
                       the dark
                          sea.
               and the
                    air
            which i drink in
                  the draught
                          of
                     soft
                     wet
                     black
                  running over my fingertips
                                              nothing more deep
                                                         more fragile
                           i am immersed.
It was standing on my computer room's balcony looking out into the darkness that made me think of this resemblance. This and sitting by my bedroom window, with waves of cool and warm alternately coming over me. Summer night is my favourite time of the entire year.

This is sort of a genre I call "midnight poetry", which means it was just jotted down late at night without much thought.

I purposely used really simple words and phrases, because anything more wouldn't be the summer night anymore.

It's called Summer Night 1 because there's this other thing I wrote, about lights in the distance...but I won't add it.

...I'm too stupid to really understand it, but the layout of the words looks cool! 8D;
