Taunting, Pressure, Encouraging name-calling.
Resulting in smokeless lungs questioning the harm.
Surely one measly puff wouldn't intoxicate the lungs.
No squeaking siblings, parents will never know.
For acceptance and popularity is at stake.
God will forgive if it's a mistake.
Choosing to decline could create.
Frowns of disproval spreading like disease.
The name-calling altered into unpleasant tease.
All this in exchange for the personal inner strength gift,
and to avoid the tortures of agonizing guilt.
Racing Thoughts
Sweaty Palms
Then suddenly smirks slowly appear,
and then the room brightens with respectable cheer.
For they were told what they wanted to hear.
Acceptance
Popularity
Is what you get.
The lost of inner strength
Accompanied by guilt.
Brings about the question.
Was it all worth it?
