teenage hearts addicted to touch screens,
and teenage hearts terrified of actual touch.
teenage hearts that party on the weekends,
and teenage hearts glued into book pages.
teenage hearts that wear gucci,
and teenage hearts that wear the same shirt every day.
teenage hearts that can never be serious
and teenage hearts to shy to even beat.
teenage hearts with two halves,
and teenage hearts with only one.
teenage hearts that thrive on mountain air,
and teenage hearts that bloom at sea level.
teenage hearts with hickies,
and teenage hearts that have never been kissed.
teenage hearts that bruise when life even thinks about throwing a punch.
and teenage hearts made of steel.
teenage hearts that sit in a chapel,
and teenage hearts that sit in bed.
teenage hearts so battered they shrivel up,
and teenage hearts swollen with dignity
teenage hearts that live for competition,
and teenage hearts that live for peace.
teenage hearts that pretend they're not broken,
and teenage hearts that don't care.
teenage hearts that demand popularity,
and teenage hearts that sit by the trash can.
teenage hearts wounded past the point of repair,
and teenage hearts that try to fix themselves.
we may be different, but we're all teenage hearts.
