Being a teenager is such a tedious affair. Not knowing who you are, who you want to be, what it is you want from life and being so goddamn emotional about it all. The smallest obstacle can completely throw you off your course, but that's okay since nobody, least of all you yourself, actually knows this course of yours. Some of us fall in love over and over again in hope of ending the loneliness, others refuse to admit any feelings at all, because they're vulnerable enough as it is. But that's just it. Every single one of us is just so deeply vulnerable. Under the surface we're all raw and aching, confused and lost, lonely and misunderstood, irrational and self-destructive. Constantly chasing something to make us feel alive. Constantly hungering for our own personality. We refuse to grow up, but at the same time we expect to be treated as adults. "We're young enough to know we can, old enough to know we shouldn't, stupid enough to do it anyway" That's just the point of it all, isn't it? Making stupid mistakes, getting hurt over it and doing it all over again. Reckless. That's what we are. Reckless with others hearts, with our own, reckless with our health, reckless stupidity. As a teenager anything is possible and deep down we know that we will never have the luxury of recklessness again.
