Growing Pains

I forgot your favorite movie and all your big dreams

We once knew each other inside and out

now ur like in college and the car parked across the street is unrecognizable

We were supposed to be best friends forever…

Your family moved away and my second home belongs to a bunch of strangers

No one talks about the pain of growing up

My head always hurts and the stress acne never goes away

My sisters visit once a week

We talk about their husbands and old memories

I buy my own gas and put myself to bed

My friends say bad words and I drive myself to school

But it’s not what I thought it would be

I miss wanting to grow up
