Someone take me back to fifteen.

Back to the nights where I stayed up until three am, listening to Icon For Hire and writing shitty characters on my first ever RP site.
Back to the people. The friends. The memories. The hugs in the school hallway. The pinky promises in the back of the class. The written vow that all of us would return after summer. The slow walks to the bus in the May thunderstorms as we pushed each other into the puddles.

Back to when mom wasn't so sad and dad wasn't so stressed.

Back to when I believed in love. Back to when my biggest problem was the 7 page essay due in two days that I had procrastinated for months on end. Back to when high school was my only nightmare. Back to when everything was material. Back to when the decisions I made didn't make or break me.

Back to when I looked forward to becoming an adult and didn't think of it as another prison. Back to when friends were friends and the conversations came easy. Back to when the people who I wanted to care - cared. Back to when I went to sleep before five in the morning. 

Back to when life was a little less complicated.
