I’ve been writing poetry since I was a kid. Most of them are terrible, however I thought I’d share a few I recently stumbled across from my teens. I’ve refrained from making edits to honour my younger self and how she expressed her thoughts all those years ago.
Everything you said and did
was only a big fat lie
That is why right now
I’m trying not to cry
How can you be so insensitive,
so selfish and so cool?
I don’t believe you should be allowed
it should be a rule
Nov 1999 – He liked me, he chased me, until he caught me… for about 4 weeks. Then we decided we were simply better as friends. A day later, he had a new girlfriend (ouch). Teen romances aren’t for the faint hearted... It should be a rule 😉
Secret Thoughts Within 
Ouch ….thats sad…and yes it should be a rule
