I do not think that I acted my age
But, the shoes worn were closer to found on a clown.
My shoes may only appear to get smaller as I grew
But, I should not be the judge in that.
I was distilled into family honour at an early age.
It was like being place of a prized animal in a zoo.
I could not act like a child among my peer since it was the public saw me.
I could not act like a child among my neighbors since I had to be their role model.
Do not ask me about to demonstrate my love toward someone else.
They were the ones who you should ask about how love should be.
I feel that I acted the way one should act into love
But, I feel I still need training wheel when it comes to love.
I am looked upon to both my attended lover and their lover.
Their views might be different and yet the same.
Where their lover learned from my mistakes
But, could I be their lover’s mistake reflection their actions to an old attended lover?
It makes me wonder if that is why that it’s not proper to rekindle old loves.
It could be why girls test their lover as they do.

Before I sound off on this poem, is english NOT your native language?
If english is NOT your mother-tongue, my apologies...I will reconsider this poem based on your answer. -
Not bad, not bad, I like the critique you've made towards humankind without going deeper into their social behavior and, instead, going into psychology, although the wording you used was somehow simple, which just made this easier to understand.
