    Adolescent

    Their negative behaviors

    Are just their way to deal

    With increased stress and lonliness

    and confusion that they feel

    So much expected of them

    These children soon to be

    The leaders of tomorrow

    In the community

    If they settle elsewhere

    May they still have piece of mind

    Remember times at high school

    Where they left childhood behind

    They really don’t know

    what they are doing

    and when they act up

    who they are screwing

    Yep. They are only hurting themselves...and their family... Good write. Glad I found you.

    really speaks to the point and has good wording some people never see that

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
