Future

About the in between phase of not being a grown up but not being a child and having to make a huge life decision. Should they? Shouldn't they?

There she stood
Brick in hand

Future ahead
Past behind

Caught inbetween
A disappearing childhood
And an unknown future

Still so young to be an adult
But to old to be a child

There she stood
Brick in hand

A decision to make

Crash done

Footsteps patter the pavement
Chears from all around

She's now apart of the crowd
one of them

Sirens whir and whine

Before long
She new it was her time

Shove
Crunch
Click
Slam

Back of the police car
In a jam

There she sat
A decision to make
Thoughts run through her mind

Her future in hand
Her future in her mind

Teen years are the hardest sometimes...
A poem that laments the conflicts.

Peer pressure can be brutal...I honestly thought this piece was going to go elsewhere, but I like the direction you took it in. Good job. (I won't mention the spelling mistakes) ;-)

No please do and can i ask where you thought it was going as can alter and call it part 2 lol

okay...in between is two words; too instead of to, as in too old; cheers; a part of the crowd, two words; knew for new...I just didn't think it would be about an act of vandalism *laugh* that's all. I liked it quite a lot.
