Love Poem: Teenage Dream

Teenage Dream

I dream this everlasting dream
Where I am her and she is she
We're so much younger than we seem
Completely alive in the audience of we

She is the senior captain of the soccer team
I'm just a little nerd who wonders what she sees
She makes me feel like I'm living in a dream
We share forbidden kisses in a poplar tree

We hide away inside ourselves every day at school
We steal our hearts in the halls with every coded glance
They would all make fun of us, the sinner and the fool
But we would be untouchable, cause we'd know how to dance

I would let her lead, be my homecoming queen
I would be her trophy for all her friends to see
She would be my guiding light, and I would be her heart
She would lift me up and together we'd be free

But this is just a dream that will never really be
I am just a girl who never had her teenage dream
This is not my memory, just wanted you to see
What I think of every night as I drift off to sleep
