Adolescent Beauty



Your eyes that flutter with freedom and joy
Your songs that seal in your soul
The first loves that glisten like ocean waves
The stings of pressure that will weigh
Laughter while carrying raised arms and smiles
I wonder if this all worth while?
Destroying this little life of mine
It seems that I may need a butterfly
Tell me that it's not too late
The beautiful fall leaves have passed
The summer laughter that won't last
Tell me it will be alright in the end
This Adolescent Beauty shall ascend

About this poem

A burst of color in the storms and joys of teen life, mistakes and happiness all alike. I want to show that time as a teen is one of the most precious times of your life yet most impactful.
