16 and in love


ah the feeling of being 16 and in love

you think you know what love means

you think a first kiss means the wedding bells will ring

you think a first date means he will be the father to your children

you think your first time means he is your soul mate

but eventually..he'll leave you

just like everyone does in high school

they all vanish into another realm called life

they all separate and go down their own paths

but one day you will meet your love again!

you were destined to be together forever!

the sweet boy with the curly hair who always told you the dumb jokes during class

your heart would melt when he would ask to borrow a pencil or share your book

or whenever the teacher assigned you seats near each other 

the best moment was when you were partners for a group project

but eventually, he finds someone else

he is done with you

he finds a girl who he believes is the one

yet, even she isn't the one

he will leave her too

oh high school

what a dreary time for love and friends

they all disappear after the most dreadful four years

Just some cheesy kid with thoughts in her mind to write down while snacking on some cheeseburgers. Yo :/
