summer
with wild nights that never ended
staying up all night on the phone with my friends
traveling to states and countries i’ve never been to
not worrying about tests and essay’s
peaceful
screaming the lyrics to songs
my friends and i barely know on the car ride to six flags
having sleepovers with the same people five days in a row
flirting with boys at the local pool with my best friends in the world
going to parties every other day
suddenly
it’s the first day of school
i’m exhausted from staying up all night every day
i get math homework on the first day
the very first day
everything is harder now
as hard as brain surgery
i don’t go to parties every other day now
or traveling
or sleeping over at my friends house for days in a row
i miss summer
i regret saying no to what could’ve been the best night of my life
and now, my summer looks boring
i just want to go back
