teen trying to stretch
her legs beyond space
heart desires
mind measures
caught in a tussle
she half smiles
between devil and deep sea
teens voyage meanders
until adult compromise

Ahh the wishfulness of youth to be beyond their years! Also beyond their understanding and development! Great creative take on the pic!

Hmmm I've seen several dark takes on this... This was a creative twist - a coming of age flow. Well done and best of luck...
