I'm the author of my life,
but, unfortunately,
I'm writing in ink and can't erase my mistakes.

Teenage Love is Stupid
And that’s coming from me. 

A 16 year old, hopeless romantic 

And I know a lot of you wont agree 
unless you’re at least 23 

But hear me out, pretty please?

See we go through life begging

to find the one that makes our life worth living 

and then we think we find them.

We promise that we’ll be there

and we could never find another. 

“I love you”
we always say, to our teenaged lover 

And then one day its just not true anymore. 

You pack your bags and out the door. 
There goes number 1. 

See as teenagers we fall in love for fun 

we dont know this at first
but trust me its true 

We fantasize about about
finding that one 
person
that we can accurately compare to the sun 

and then ****
with the sound of a gun 

runs
all of our feelings, 
away from us.

Please dont misunderstand what I’m trying to say

I do not believe teenagers dont know what love is, 

I simply do not believe we truly kno what it feels like.

In which case we spend all of this time devoting our hearts
and minds 

to this person
that we swear we’re so lucky to find

and
after a couple months everything just
 stops 
and feelings are nowhere to be found 

Hearts are broken
and we dive back into the crowd 

to find our next
“one true love”

— The End —
