Family, friends,
Co-workers, strangers.
They always say it
"Enjoy these years,
Their the best of your life."
Maybe in the future
It will turn out that way,
But right now,
No way!
You name it,
We probably got it.
We get stabbed in the back
By our best friends.
Stress, yea we got that
More than you think.
Homework, teachers,
Clubs, sports,
Friends, enemies,
Work, tests,
College, drugs,
And most of all
You, our parents.
To us it seems as though
Anything we do
Isnt good enough for you.
You dont seem to get it.
If only you could
Become one of us,
For one day.

The Truth is...teen life is generally pretty damn easy. You have to really get out into the fray before realizing all that "stress" doesn't bother you a bit faced with the relative armegeddon of real life.
But it's something you've got to see to believe.

Great Job!

I like it. When you say "we get backstabbed by our bestfriends" its true. I've been backstabbed, once just recently.

this one is one of my faves so far, cause it is so true. Adults just don't seem to remember what it's like to be faced with so many decisions growing up. Glad you explained it so well.
