Young love puts you in such a trance.
It's such a horrid romance.
One to break your heart,
to tear you all apart.
Even when it pulls you to pieces,
you're willing to give second chances.
You watch on while friends break,
while the one they pine for doesn't even quake.
Tears are shed,
stained on your bedspread.
And it hurts when you can't fix their heartache,
so every night, you lie awake.
Oh, I hate to be the one to break this to you,
but this is something no child ever outgrew.
Author notes
Okay so this is definitely one of my favorite self-authored poems. I'm so proud, it even rhymes! :]
