nothing gold can stay.

i'm not going to dedicate this term to the death of my innocence because that sounds kind of dramatic and maybe a little slutty.

but i am dedicating the rest of this blog to growing up.

because that's what's happening. 

I'M GROWING UP.

i'm not going to be gold anymore.
i can't stop it. and as i get older i can't stay innocent.
or maybe i can.
but as of right now, 
with even the gold leaves falling,
and winter coming
---that prospect is looking very very grim.


so for now....

nothing gold can stay,
