I am a teenager

Many people are bothered

By our kind.

Like we’re a different species.

Don’t they realize?

They were once us.

Rebelling against power,

Thinking we’re right

And we might just be too.

We are the future

So why must they treat us like crap?

True, many of us aren’t quite in the right mind.

 

It’s the damn hormones, I tell ya.

It’s not all our fault.

We need guidance and nurturing

Not orders they expect us to follow as though we’re slaves.

We want independence

We want to run our lives

If we have bad childhoods,

You just know our lives are ruined forever.

Once we were

Sweet, little children adored by all.

Everything was cute.

When is the line drawn?

When everything changes?

I sigh cause

I want answers.

And questions that are important.

I am a teenager

(Oh the angst.)
