tenagers
Behind closed doors
Nobody knows what they know
They sit there and sit, and sit and sit
You know when it’s time for them to bloom
You can smell it in the air
But you wonder: will they make it?
Teenagers are like flowers
They grow and grow and grow
Never go back to the past
But look ahead to the future
How long will this be?
Will they remember their past?
Maybe, maybe not
Who knows? Who cares?
As you watch them grow and become close but farther from you
You cry
You touch them, but then they vanish.
Vanish into thin air
They come as they please
And wish they could leave
They leave you there to die
Will they come back?
Maybe. Maybe not
Who cares? Who knows?
You say you do
But do you really?
Possibly……right?
