At fourteen I swore I knew the world. I swore I've been through everything and anything life has to offer. A lot more than my age and face told. But then you came along. And no body warned me, no body prepared me for that. The second I laid my eyes on you, I entered an entirely new world. Perfection. Bliss. Love. I felt as if your mere presence was the plane ticket to paradise, a staircase to heaven. But everything that goes up must come down. And we did. The good vibes and good times were swept up and swallowed by a wave of incompatibility. I was drowning. You weren't there to help anymore. I can't believe the things we've endured. I can't believe I lost years of my life to such a young boy. No, not young in age, in which we are the same. But young in mind and soul.
