Teenagers

Friends become strangers

lollipops turn into cigarettes

the innocent ones turn into sluts

homework goes in the  trash

soda becomes vodka 

and kisses turn into sex

remember when getting high meant swinging on the playground?

when protection meant wearing a helmet?

and the worst thing you could get from boys were cooties?

dad's shoulders were the highest place on earth and mo was your hero?

your worst enemies were your siblings?

race issues were about who ran the fastest

the only drug you knew was panadol

wearing a skirt didn't make you a slut

the only thing that hurt was grazed knees 

and goodbyes were only meant until tomorrow?

We all said we couldn't wait to grow up. What were we thinking?
