They're obsessed with social media and two-second dating
we talk about climate change and ski racing
they'll talk about what they're supposed to
we'll talk about the world's problems and what to do
they'll pretend they're all the same
we understand that they're playing a game
they look at their phones
let's look at the stars.
Posted in response to the challenge PAST CONTESTS – Teenager: In Writing.
The sun didn’t kiss these boys
It hugged them
The way you would with your best friend before
Leaving for a long time
It hugged them and
It made their skin the color of a caramel
And their hair like the sand
contagious laughter sweet sticky summer nights
How do I explain
that doubled over laughter
none of us
can play volleyball but
all of us
can laugh
and s'mores
you asked me
what I was doing
I was doing
it all wrong
you said
