Teenage life

by Jade   Apr 5, 2005


Friends
boyfriends
gossip
classes

the people we call friends
always out to get you
you try to close them out
but how can you close something out when there isn't a door

Give your heart out
thinking your going to be together forever
then you find out he has another lover
you thought you had the one

The people you learn to
trust
start to drink from the
fountain of never ending words

sitting in class listening
to the teachers teach the same thing over again
you would think they would prep us for life
but really they prep us for a test
a test they wouldn't be able to pass

the words fail swim around my
head
scared to disappoint

"get good grades,try harder"
the words parents use
the words that push us to the edge
they push us to do crazy things

harder i try
the harder i fall
the more i try to please
the crazier i go

i was always told
"life is a bumpy road we must go down"
but when will
i know where my stops are

to bad life doesn't come with a manual
maybe everything would go smother then
maybe there would be fewer problems

but for now all i can do is close my eyes
try to shut everything out
