The number 16
There is a lot of meaning
Behind this number 16
16
Getting your first
Real boyfriend
16
Getting your
Drivers license
16
Going out to parties
Then it starts
16
Getting into trouble
16
Doing things you aren’t
Allowed to do
16
Drinking
Your boyfriend calls out to you
“Come home with me everything will be fine”
He says this with confidence in himself
You don’t bother to buckle yourself up
Knowing,
It’s
Not
Fine
