Nineteen Ruined Me.

Nineteen and my only problem is feeling,

It tires and tears me at the seams,

As if I should be a structure so perfect,

Even I wish I knew what this means,

 

But I know what to compare with a glance and a glare,

Like I don’t know the face of a lie,

And I’m sure she’s pretty and standing next to me,

While I’m as boring as that train ride to truth,

 

Matters will never matter when I get there,

As though I’m your truth and you’re still scared,

I would beg you to forget me if you can accept honesty,

Then nineteen and feelings wouldn’t be so hard, honestly...
