Teenager Poems - Poems about Teenager

I call myself a "senior teenager" (put the two together and you get "seenager"). I have all that I ever wanted as a teenager - lots of stuff, both minor and major - I just got it all some fifty years later! I don't have to go to school or obey some teacher's rule. I don't have to go to work and hear...

they always ask me to stay a little longer, as if laughter came from my skin. as if I could be unlonely just by making sure no one else is. I fill the room, and yet I’m never in it. they love me most in photographs cropped at the waist— in group chats where I type like a mirror and vanish like fog. I am the pause...

Caught by surprise one sunny day, a neighbor's friendly voice said "Hi" as I was passing by her garden's flower spray. Upon hearing that simple word, it came together in that place, a lovely garden, a pretty face, and something in my heart stirred. Kind friend, strangely, it appears I've gone all silly and soft. My spirit was borne aloft. It's been so many years. 'Twas a glad moment...

my dad's dad would tell him tales from the war so many strangers who fought stories from ordinary men who washed up heroes on the shore he told my father they were sold a dream a golden scene they'd save the world at only nineteen but no that wasn't the case bullets flew by overhead like the planes dropping bombs on unsuspecting nurses preparing the beds at base horrific soul destroying,...

I have grown up with my mother’s hatred and my father’s disgust. I have grown up In the shadow of my brother Who couldn’t be anything but perfect. I have grown up like a stray I have grown up I have survived. I have grown up I am alive. Broken, bleeding and hurt I have grown up. Against all odds I have...

I can almost smell the fresh paint. That isn't possible however. That scent was almost 19 years ago… Butter Yellow was the name on the sample card. Rocking chair. Tiny pink booties. Stickers hide butter yellow behind princesses, animals, stars, happy faces, everything adhesive. About 50 inches up the walls.. stickers and fingerprints. Giggles echo. Spray paint...

I sleep in each day until *noon, My *mum says I live on the moon, If I think a day’s good *deed, Is to *eye a Facebook feed, Than to *peep outside of my room....

You are the only one who listened The only one who took the time When there was nobody You came along I made you mine Words are just words If they don't come from the heart I so want to express how much I love you And what you mean to me But even when words come from my heart I never know where...

Encased in your arms, sheath of heart around me Soliticious expression sigh in my ear Fingers rolling through my hairs A splatter of rain calling out lovers The Chime of the clock desired to while away the time Gravity pulled upon me, A Minute shape became a piece Longing to be held in your arms, praying for eternity....

Elasticated waistbands, at what age? Comfortable trousers are all the rage. For a mature figure and the oversized, Some teenager's just take the rise. Long-sleeved shirts in summer months Cover the arms sags and bumps. Dignity for the middle-aged Whose bodies have maybe decayed. Maxi dresses shade ankles and thighs, Better days sometimes denied. So, cover up your soft white bits, As you get older have...

To go out with friends Without having a care in the world To find people who just get me And accept me the way I am To be good at a sport And to be known To do well in school Yet not be “too nerdy” To be pretty Without being accused of Seeking attention To popular But not obnoxious To be in love Without falling into the trap Of...

You’ve probably seen them everywhere, the grinning, happy, carefree teenagers, mere children really. I’m not a teenager anymore. I started missing it last week, because I knew I was losing it, like a lover at the moment of separation. Have I lost the fantastic glow of youth? Maybe *shrug* I know I’ve lost a lot of excuses, “She’s just a teenager,” they used to say. Well,...
