Nobody keeps their middle school friends
forever.You'll
fail a math test once in your life.Your teachers
will assign you seats away from your friends
and your parents will assign you to your room
when you do illegal things.You're going
to get
drunk and say something you'll
regret.You're going
to cry over boys whose names you won't
remember in
twenty years.You're going to call your
friends names
behind their back when they make you mad,
and they're
going to do the same to you.Your
opinions of people
will change, once you get to know
them.You're going
to run from the police. You're going to
hold someone's
hair back at one o'clock on a saturday
morning.You're
never going to finish ALL your homework.You're
going to cry and maybe, just maybe, need a hug
from your
mom.You're going to bulls**t every essay you
write and
pray that you sound like you know what you're
talking about.You're
going to get lost in a neighborhood that
you don't
know and and walk around til you find where you're
going.You're
going to sing sappy teenage ballads all alone in
your room
when no one else is home.You're going to dream of
finallygetting
out of your town, and you're going to miss it when
you leave.You're
going to take pictures that you will blush at
in five
years.You're going to get whistled at, cheated on, yelled
at,ditched
by your friends, played by boys,laughed at.You're
going to
fall in and out of love, and one day you might really figure
out what
that word means.You're never going to stop looking
for yourself.
You are a teenager,so stop trying so hard,
expecting so
much, crying so often.Walk with your head held high.Quit
talking s**t
about people.Take a walk outside.Go to school and smile
at everyone,and
who knows.You might really make it through.
Nobody keeps their middle school friends forever.You'll fail
