I Am A Teenager
I am inconstant and I am gutsy. 
 I wonder about who I will be.
 I hear about what is right and what is wrong.
 I see my friends changing, so that they can belong.
 I want to put my future on a simple wager.
 I am nothing but, a teenager.
 
 I pretend to know and understand everything.
 I feel my future hanging on a single string.
 I touch my dreams, but they disappear in a blink.
 I worry about what others may think.
 I cry as I hope I might also have stager.
 I am nothing but, a teenager.
 
 I understand that the world is not on my side.
 I say that I will continue to take it in stride.
 I dream of the day, I might stand on my own.
 I try to forget that I might someday be alone.
 I hope that I also will be a creator.
 I am nothing, but a teenager
 
 I really didn’t want you find out or to know.
 That I just don’t fit in, and it’s really starting to show.
 Maybe if I make the team, I’d stand out in the crowd.
 If they could see how hard I try, I know they would be proud.
 But, I still stand as nothing, but an evader.
 So, I continue to be nothing, but a teenager.
