Teenage Love Story Poem by Courtney Violette

A classic story of teenage love.
Boy likes girl,
Girl likes boy.
Boy asks girl out,
Girl says yes.
Boy and Girl fall in love.
But what they always leave out,
Is that the Girls friend also loves Boy.
She loved Boy before Girl knew Boy.
She never told Boy, Boy never knew.
And Boy never will.
Because She wants Girl to be happy.
She cries at night, just so Girl doesn’t have to.
She loves Boy, She loves Girl.
She won’t ever tell them.
She’ll laugh and smile,
So She can cover up the fact that her heart is broken.
Soon She’ll fade away into the background.
She’ll wither in pain, and sorrow,
Of her unhealed heart.
Just so Girl will live happily ever after.
It seems that part is always left out.
