[hometext] => The teen years are the hardest. I should know, I am one.
[bodytext] => I’ve changed, I’m a new person Better than before, but still pretty bad I’m a teenager. We change our minds rapidly, Without telling anyone We think without speaking And we speak without thinking. We admit some feelings But most we keep hidden We love who we are and everything about us On the outside. But inside, what do we really think of ourselves? Do we like what we see in the mirror every morning That person staring back at us, with that blank, lost stare Like the person we used to be, is still in there, somewhere. We look at each other, judging with our eyes Trying to take away the thought That we are imperfect in any way That we have a fatal flaw that someone else will point out. Nobody’s perfect, and we are no exception We judge, we joke, we laugh, we hurt We hide, we like, we hate, we love Everything we do has a meaning, it’s just unclear to others We try to act tough, like we know what to do Every minute of every day, when we really are lost Nobody understands what it is like, for they do not remember What is was like to be us, trying to figure out the world We are just like everyone else, but we are different all the same We have feelings that become hurt, and hearts that become broken We cry ourselves to sleep at times, thinking of how we wish To not feel this pain, this shame, or this guilt. We are not all bad, we are merely confused In a world of many, we are only few Despite everything, we stick together For only we know what it feels like to be… A teenager.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
