Through the eyes of a teenager

by Erika   Jan 19, 2006


Everyday passes, reminding me of tha lessons to b learned, opportunities pass me by showin me things 2 b earned, I do not kno life as an adult see\'s it only as a child n teen, I can only gues what life is meant 2 b based on what i\'ve seen, today I learned of love, and tha pain it may bear, u can neva kno a persons truth behind tha masks they wear, I do not kno tha meanin of love, or why it is neva true, im not sure of so many things these days, I kno less than I thought I knew, I find it\'s gettin diffucult to distinguish bad from good, nd although it sounds cliche i\'m a child misunderstood, I need 2 move on past tha hurts, move 2 heaven from tis hell, I need 2 stand up 2 othas nd 2 mahself as well, I dnt kno how 2 tell a good friend from a bad, we talk behind eachothas bac ruinin tha trust we had, whn I stare n 2 tha mirror, I c things I wish I culd deny, a fear of judgement nd confrontation, I can no longer look myself n tha eye, if every1 has 2 go through torment nd through pain, if they understood tha hurt that is anothers gain, if they culd can feel tha burden of their fears nd kno tha cost of showin their tears, if they know how it feels 2 have a lover or friend stap their backs wit knives..why are they so cruel 2 say these are tha best days of their lives????
