"Summertime and the Living's Easy"

I long for the day when it's summer and the living's truly easy.
No pretense and
For all the glory you see is a farce.

The happiness, a mask
Buried under the cordial smiles and social interactions,

are the built-up tension and anxiety.

Go ahead, 

another dip in the pool,

another trip to your favorite spa resort,

another sip of that sweet summer nectar.

I wonder how long it will last this time?
