late night growing pains

[hiding_shadows]

blue black eyes
from groggy days
and sunless nights.
sleep doesnt matter anymore.
words fly across paper
ruffled and rushed
as the sound of morning
comes barreling down on me.
im giving up this fight.
i miss the coffee shop days
and running wild through the streets.
everyone seemed a little more sincere then,
now there are bills to pay
and errands to run.
i was trying so hard to grow up
id give anything to back track again
and relive that last summer.
i can still feel it throbbing in my veins.
and clinging to the soles of my shoes.
