The End of the World

Snapshots of teenage melodrama:
not having the sense to stay out of the rain, 
the latest hits broadcast over the cafeteria speakers,
a night out, with boisterous boys and giggling girls in cars,   
first heartbreak. It seems like the end of the world - silly, isn't it?

Visions of Hell:
standing alone, under the driving rain, unable to find a reason to live or move - 
stood up, by an empty cafeteria, "you're gonna wish, you wasn't born at all", 
walking alone at night, taunted by shouting boys and giggling girls, "freak". 
The end of the world?  Lights out?  I'm on board.

Me too, David. It's crazy to me. I don't know what it is to them. They probably don't know either. LOL Have a nice weekend, my friend. Bill

Teens these days. They just don't want to wait 5 billion years or so for the sun to heat up, I guess. Impatient whippersnappers, lol.
