Adolescence

by the-girl-who-writes

She furiously takes notes in geometry class He throws a paper plane across the room She gets out her neatly written homework He gets out a scratch paper with drawings on it She maintains straight A's He's lucky to get a D+ She has a strict curfew of 9:00 pm He stays out all night She daydreams about what could be He steps up for what he wants She reads Shakespeare He reads... Well he doesn't She drives the latest model of the Honda civic He's lucky if his '76 Toyota will start She's only loved honor students He's only loved her She pays no attention to him He begs for her notification She graduates top of her class He barely gets by She goes off to college He stays and becomes a mechanic She marries rich and lives wealthily but bitterly He regrets the concealed feelings he never shared
