leaving (Free verse) by elizabethann
stayed up until three
talking about boys and
makeup. we were trying
to make it last. we
were all growing up so fast.
missed the days of boy bands
and summertime lemonade stands.
stayed up until three
trying not to leave childhood
forcing ourselves to stay in that moment
giggling over him and her
using whispers for bad words
didn't want to sleep
didn't want to ever leave.
stayed up until three
our last night together
remains with us forever.
