_{don't

it.

i'll get all
poetic
with you, since you
despise to listen;

stop chasing boys who
don't even like you;
they don't like
girls, not at this age;

stop thinking you
know how the world works,
you aren't a

of genius in radical
magnitudes; you're (fucking)
crazy, i'll give you that,
and you know how to get what
you want, but it doesn't make
you queen of saigon

(you'll have to wait a few years
until then)

you will learn the
definition of love when you're
introduced to danger and
black leather boys with caramel
skin and slick hair and everything
you thought was "idiotic" when you
were four;

you'll dance in pale moonlight with
a blonde-haired, blue-eyed boy that
you thought you loved a year ago; turns
out he never really cared and you said
you'd give your all for nothing

but you'll know what it
feels like to be in a romance
movie after years and
years of being un-included
in the class gossip about
whoever's hottest; you'll
realize that you're the one
who's chased when you start
calling your best friend
your boyfriend and then
it comes true, it all
comes true, i t

don't deny you wish you
were marilyn monroe, filling up your
bathtub with diamonds and the world!
in the palms of your hands;
oh,
but only if you knew-

stop eating anything with
too much sugar in it and stop thinking that you'll
be fine; you end up worrying about it day
after day, you start thinking that you're
crazy and you're lying on your bedroom floor
as you scream out, towards the world!

At my school, if you had great conduct & really good grades, they'll let you skip school for one day to ride roller coasters with all of your friends who ALSO got the same kinds of thingy-ma-bobbers.
