Teenage Lust

Taken in by peoples charm 
Innocent flirting, causing no harm, 
Until it leads to something more deep 
Where I dream of him in my sleep. 
Outside beauty, inner disgust 
This fling is nothing but teenage lust. 
Means more to one than the other 
I guess I was just another sucker. 
For his charm and sweet smile 
Now I see that he is nothing but vile. 
And I’m just the fool 
A fool for being taken in by you.
