The Meaning of Love From a Teenager

Love in the teenage world is not really love
Its a better word to describe lust when there are no words to think of.
Not comparable to the love towards a mother.
But a word expressing the intimate feelings of your lover.
Teenage love is like the love of one's favorite game.
Not a love that is as hot as a candle's flame.
At 16 love to me is really not love at all.
Love to me is like loving a scratch or a scrape when you fall.
No love at so young can be expressed in anyway.
While true love can be expressed through a charcoal grey day.
So the phrase "I Love You" should be said with much care.
Because with saying these words you take an enormous dare.
For you may unleash a love that is not to be seen.
By the ugliest feelings and masks of desire need only to be seen in a dream.
