15 and Stupid

This poem was inspired by my best friend and her troubles: ) We go out on our first date, We go back to your house, Your parents are asleep, We go to your bedroom, You tell me you love me and that you will take care of me, I wake up thinking of last night your laying next to me holding me, You wake up and look at me and smile, You lean over and kiss me, I feel like you are the best thing to ever happen to me, You are my first love, Little do we know what’s happening, Nine months latter we are parents, We are planning our marriage, Our lives are set in stone now, We are parents at age fifteen, engaged at age fifteen, Life has just left our eyes, Now we are two teens in love living on their own parents disowned them, child with them drop outs of high school and working jobs to survive. What a stupid mistake we made at age fifteen. Under aged sex is not a smart choice unless you want my life….

This is amazingly good. Tell your friend I said im sorry, but good luck...Im 16...i was raped when i was 13 and possibly had a miscarage...though i know i wouldnt have ever been able to take care of that baby, i wish i hadnt lost it...so in a way, though she may not think shes lucky to have that life, shes very lucky...because she is in love, with a guy whos still by her side, and shes got her baby...tell her i say, good luck, and make the best of it. xo Rain

wow this is a great poem sad but also the perfect way to make your point to other. this poem also makes me sad because i think at that age you dont have the capacity to know what real true love is, it is so easy to feel like you are tho! this poem is definitly great and great advice for our youth.
