Boyfriends

oh my goodness that is so cute....it could be a song! My daughter listens to the Disney channel, with singers like Raven and Linsey Lohan, and this would be perfect for girls to listen to while they are entering that period of doubt before the blossom.

excellent!

Andrea,

A powerful and emotionally written piece - wonderful!

Robert

Ah, don't know if you are meaning thos about you, saw the photo too, but if it is, I have a suggestion. QUIT BEATING UP ON YOURSELF!

I could relate to this so much....I was really shy when I was a kid!
Wonderfully told :-)

Andrea

Oh though teen years can rough.
And we all have feelings like this.
But nothing beats being yourself.

Take care unique poetess

because you are a unique and searching for more than they will allow you to become ...

great expression of emotions. Wonderful write.

Fantastic poem! Andrea, I know this isn't about you, I've seen your pic;-) but there are many who feel like this, and no matter what we say, they have to go through the hurt until they come to terms with it themselves....I always feel that beauty comes from within,and when you have enough of it inside it has to make a glow outside. that should be young peoples goal to be beautiful inside first.

You have to be yourself and who else can
you be. I understand this angst. Great write!

Hi Adrea:

Are you describing me here when I was a teenager? Heeeheee!

Not only that, when I was a teenager, I had two best friends, we were always together like the 3 musketeers. We've always did things together; but one day my two best friends were invited to a party, but the host did not invite me. He had singled me out for not inviting me. The worst was that he pulled me to one side and said to me that he was sorry that he did not invite me, because there wasn't enough space in the party - as if I would take up a lot of space.

Anyway, after the party, all three of us have never talked to this guy again.

Anyway, so much for my life story, see how thought-provoking your poem is? Wonderful write.

Andrea, I hold on to the old saying that there is somebody for everybody somewhere in this world...
Fate will find you one day..and you will be the Spring rose that blossoms.
Hang in there Kid! You're doing just fine.

Being one's self is not a bad thing to be. I would bet most men and women have had similar feelings at one time in our lives. I know I did; and when I accepted me for who I was, I became quite happy eventually.

A question all young ones ask. The right one eventually comes along, noticing everything the other ones missed. Well done poem.

Carmen :-)

I'll bet you're quite normal... Be yourself and don't compromise to gain attention. Nice write.

Who knows?

Your pain is so real and so is your honesty!

Be YOU and stay REAL.

Everything has a price - as we all know so well - but nothing can buy your openness and integrity - not even to stop being YOU!

Because you're not shallow, and these types never find mr right, or true soul love, only superficial...Going/joining places you're comfortable with, with people of the same ilk, and it will happen when least expected..

Always be yourself..

Your self image is out of kilter, and for no reason beaut...x
