High School Romance

Inside us all, we crave the same.
Those moments that we smile for no reason,
Filling up notebooks with someone's name,
And thinking about that person until we fall asleep.

We all crave to be held in someone's arms.
Or calling someone to talk when we have had a bad day.
We want to feel protected from all harm.
...we just want to be loved.

A High School Romance is different in many ways.
Too many complications are faced day to day.
No time, not ready, jerks just wanting to get laid,
Pregnancies, immaturity, and even lack of communication.

Although these problems exist everywhere,
It is harder on us at our age.
We need someone to love, and someone who cares.
We want to feel like we can do anything.

Love lets you feel that way..
It truly is a perpetual bliss that makes you act so stange.
We want to love, and for our love to stay..
throughout the years, and not just a High School Romance.
