The life of a teenager is difficult

They make mistakes, go through problems and deal with so many different encounters

In high school it can be very hard

Several are still trying to figure out who they are

Theres the jocks and the cheerleaders

The punks and the skaters, the stuck ups, the haters

Then theres those who serveral don't know about

Think its easy trying to figure them out?

Of course its not, but we still try

Teenagers go through several things-

Puberty, relationships, emotions they never knew

trying their best, making mistakes, to name a few

They want to fit in, they want to feel welcome

Theres several things they don't tell you, and why?

Some never know?

Maybe its because there afraid?

They don't tell you because its not cool

You can't be around there friends, because you're a fool

The life of a teenager can be very depressing

If you don't think so parents, just try to ask them

The life of a teenager has its ups and downs

The life of a teenager can't be seen all around

So the next time when you want to "talk"

Be careful how you say it, or approach them

You don't want to lose your child

Just think back to when you were younger

How did you feel, did you want to talk to your parents

Just remember the life of a teenager, you'll never forget it

Very, very true. I liked it a lot.

"Theres several things they don't tell you, and why?

Some never know?"

I find this to be the chord that struck me the most, as it feels like this same question played out through my mind when I was in the situation.

I enjoyed it ^^, keep it up!

You are so right, v2bh, the teenage years are a very tender age.  This is the stressful time when there are way too many things to figure out. I haven't forgotten, and I still struggle with certain issues, even though I'm old enough to have a 13-year-old granddaughter.
I really appreciate your poem.  Well expressed.   ~K

I can easily relate to this, as I am also a teenager.

A vivid poem indeed.
