"Teen Angels"

"Teen Angels"

By Arcassin Burnham

We cross our hearts and hope to die,

We cross our fingers and tell no lies,

No stories,

No wise tales,

We prosper and prevail,

We proceed to serve society,

Abide by our parents,

Obey the school rules,

The way it intended,

Its apparent,

We love fantasies,

And we love dreams,

We adore peaches and cream,

And we like bird and bees,

As long as they buzz,

You can have a husband,

And get married living with his cousin,

You can be a doctor or maybe a lawyer,

You tell a nickel from dime and a quarter,

You can be a rockstar traveling the world,

You can inspire every little boy and girl,

You can make a living,

You can do whatever you wanna do,

As long as you be an angel,

And be you.
