When your young

When your young, you don't realise your life has just begun. The things that matter most to you are boys, girls and being cool. School is tough, the work you do is never enough. You feel left out you want to belong even though you know it's wrong, so you skip the work and put the computer on. You meet some friends down the park, have some beers and have a lark. It's half past nine you should go home, but your mate say's, "Ah come on don't leave us on our own." So you stay,turn off your phone.
Your mate say's "Here have a smoke," "What is it?"
you ask. He say's, "Oh just some dope." You take some puffs and start to float, Its just like being
on a boat. You take some more and find a sea of colours on the floor. You cannot believe what you are seeing, suddenly life has meaning. It's four a.m. and you must go home, what to expect well probably a moan. You turn the key in the door, your mum's still up it's half past four. But your tired and bemused and not quite sure of what to do. Your mum say's, "Get to bed and think about what I've said." You turn to look at her and say, "Yeh Okay." Then fall into bed and drift away. Another school day begun, you just get to class before the school bell's rung. You see your mate's in the break, They say last night was really great. "How about again tonight?" But you say, "No I've an essay to write." Why is it when your young and your life has just begun, you want to be free to have some fun, But in the end your plans get undone. Life's not so simple when your young.
