Cold Summer

My eyes need a rest from this cold summer and I long to dream of blue skies. Instead, every night is a brand new nightmare, leaving me in fear of sleep.

The uneventful days of this summer are unsettling. Even for someone like myself who doesn't really live much, it is usually a bit more upbeat than this. I think maybe I have lost myself completely. I used to be wild and free, I cared for nothing but the now, and I let the fear of consequences settle in when they were actually right in front of me. Now I can't stomach the thought of a single reckless moment, but I can't seem to stomach fear either. I miss the nights that were more than visiting a friend and heading home. I miss when I acted on impulses of adventure that still flow so strongly through me.
