I’m sleeping on the couch again tonight
But it’s a futon
Not just a couch
So that’s not as weird
Right?
Part of me wants to sleep out here because the child in me never could
I wasn’t allowed to spend the night on the couch
My parents always told me to go sleep in my bed
To this day I still don’t know why
Part of me wants to sleep out here because the adult in me wants to sleep somewhere else
It’s been lonely since I moved out
I’m loving the freedom and independence
But I miss the feeling of sleeping in a new bed of someone I’m getting to know
The inner child in me is getting to grow up
But the adult in me wishes I can continue to fast forward
Or maybe go back
You know what
I’m
Not
Really
Sure.
