Comments(1)These are the years when we find ourselves
and
see past all the bullshit we've been feeding off of since elementary school.
These are the years when we lose best friends,
lose boyfriends and girlfriends or lose our virginity to that guy who wrote you
the love song.
These are the years where we have to ignore the rumors about
being a dyke or a queer
and try even harder to ignore the stares in the hall when we know full well that its true. These are the years of experimentation.
We experiment with style, we experiment with drugs,
we experiment with friends and
we experiment with love.
These are the years of broken hearts and lies.
Gossip and tears and who had sex whom at that party.
These are the years of drug overuse and overdose,
where one kid dies and the rest of us pretend to be shocked. We knew it was coming, and it doesn't even scare us anymore.
That is scary.
These are the years of choice and consequence and
What
