In a few months I will be an adult

People will assume I will know what to and not to do over night

Men will look at me in weird ways after telling them my age

My family will expect me to do everything right and if I do one wrong I will be shunned

But I'm still just a kid

Its in the name eight-TEEN

I am not an adult

Im still learning

But I will soon be 18

And that is scary but I am ready
