I'm 14 years old
the innocence shows
but soon it will change
& this is how the story goes
i'm 15 years old
a new boy in my view
temptation to lust
& all we shall do
i'm 16 years old
the new me is there
i'm called a slut daily
but hell if i care
i like my new life
or so i think
i love the way i dress
& the way the boys wink
but bored i become
& look back is what i do
i begin the depression
hating the brand new
why did i change
i didn't mature
this can't be life
there's gotta be a cure
i went against all
mistaked lust for love
i know i even hurt
the man from above
why am i like this
why can't i go back
i'm full of wild thoughts
and innocence i lack
i wanna know why
but i fear i won't
my new thoughts will overpower
& i wanna say don't
but i know the old me
the old me isn't here
& the rest of my life
my life i will fear...

I can understand where you are coming from... because I just came from that place myself.
If you like, you can probably go take a look at this poem I wrote about this predicament I was in.. http://allpoetry.com/poem/4822077
Yeah. When one loses one's way in life, the saddest thing is that you start doubting yourself, your abilities- who you *really* are.
Good poem
