I wrote this poem because it is exactly how I feel about growing up. You have to grow up fast these days. It's like you go from a child to a teen in less then a year. The reason I wrote it is because I wish to warn others that the hardest part is being accepted by your peers. Don't let people make you afraid to be who you want to be.

Teen Years
|
Everyone tells you, they're the best years of your life. The thing they don't tell you, is they are all full of strife. From a child to a teen, in less then a year. It's a lot to deal with, you have to grow up fast. As a child you're free, as a teen you feel locked up. A child has no worries, A teen has a lot. You learn the meaning of love, you discover broken hearts. The worries of being accepted, are the hardest part of all. What's the "best" about these years. When as a teen, you live in fear. |
