I think I may have had this same exact kind of night before. The existential dread of growing up is real. But, as a sophomore myself, its... not less scary, but you don't have to let go of being a kid just yet. Maybe people never actually have to give that up. Sometimes I think grownups are all just pretending to be grown up.
I love your perspective! I try to think like this too and my inner child isn't ever going to leave me either when I'm an adult.
This is gorgeous! I love your attention to detail!
Oooh okay! Thank you!!
Oo thank you!
Ooh okay, thank you!!
I wish I could send a letter like this to someone in my life. I hope everything works out. This is raw and gorgeous and almost made me cry.

Thanks so much. This poem means a lot to me and I'm really glad you liked it.
This is gorgeous and completely relatable - you completely put into words the feelings I can never seem to describe. Amazing job! :)
Thank you, it means a lot! :)
