A journey lies ahead for all teenagers today. A journey to adulthood, our youth to kiss away. But as we go we find ourselves at a truly awkward stage. Were partial, unripe, sketchy, and crude at this tender age. Were old enough to make a choice yet still young in many ways. Too young to pack our bags and go, to old to want to stay. Young enough for fun and games, too old for carefree lives. Young enough for hopes and dreams, yet reality we strive. Old enough for heartfelt pain, too young to find the cure. Too old for childish ways of the past, too young to be mature. Old enough to fall in love and give our hearts away, but still too hard to understand just why we feel this way. Were trusted, loyal, proud, and true yet scolded, sneered, and scorned. Between the role of adult and child, we are somewhere torn. Like an uncompleted work of art, were awkward, unsure, half-baked, but be patient please for were on our way to becoming something great
