Dear teenager! I’ll tell you something!
A tale nobody told me
A tale between me and man’s enemy!
A tale so strong it almost left me defenseless
A tale I didn’t prepare for and it caught me off guard
Dear teenager, temptation is real
In different forms
In days you never expect, things happen.
You have a choice. To accept or deny
Dear teenager, you want to try things
Good things, bad things, different things.
You feel the urge so strong
The desire tramples your will
When you try it, you like it.
Eventually it becomes love.
Dear teenager, there is a straight line drawn between the two things people mistake often.
Enjoying the moment and ruining the future,
Don’t mistake the two!
Sometimes you have a second chance,
And other times, there’s no going back,
Dear teenager, a bad habit or a good habit
Whichever one you choose becomes part of you
It grows on you and later represents you,
Something you see as a far fetched idea.
Becomes a normality to you.
Dear teenager,
Thread the road carefully,
Look intently,
And listen well,
It’s true when they say you you reap what you sow,
The only person responsible for you is you!
Dear Teenager
