Seventeen Tries To Ignore Fifteen

Energetic and enthusiastic 
She is fifteen 
Joy oozes out of her 

He is seventeen 
Set in his ways, 
Glued to his chair In a subliminal fog of nothingness 

Her quick wit and sudden movements 
Make him feel tired and depressed 
He does what he can to discourage her 

She cannot be dissuaded 
Her tittering laughter and positivity astounds him 
He does his best to not smile.
