Teenage Romance, by Natalie Subscribe to rss feed for Natalie

Wild parties, wild nights,
Teenage romance and endless fights.
"You're a liar, you know its true!"
"You're paranoid, so typical!"

School days, long weekends,
Projects due and time with friends.
Noisy classrooms, the lunch time bell,
Off to the playground, a fiery hell.

Sneaking kisses behind the tree,
As much as you want, love is free!
But it's not love, don’t be absurd,
Love is deceitful, a four letter word.

When in the wrong hands, love can destroy,
It plays with you, you are its toy.
It grabs your ankles, pulls your hair,
Holds you down and strips you bare.

Heads are turned, ears are blocked,
The room is empty, the door is locked.
Sorry, its time to just give up,
Close your eyes and depend on luck.

When morning comes, it'll be gone,
The howling stops as the sun reaches dawn.
Love is petty, feeble and insecure,
Teenagers don't know what they're up for.

I really like this one!

Hmmmmmm... and yet real, true, unconditional love is the most beautiful thing in the world. The love you describe sounds more like infatuation or lust... i suppose it's all the same sometimes.

Thank-you for the feedback Faith. Although i still stand by my choice of words. Never did i mention "love" in a positive light...especially the rape motive.
