This is the time of your life when everything is possible, before the weight of the world holds you down, when it is the easiest to pick yourself up off the ground. This is the time of your life when you try to get by, but everything you want seems to defy, when it's the hardest to understand all the reasons why it seems these people just want to see you cry. This is the time of your life when everything is new, the world seems like a big place and it all centers around you. It is the time of your life when you don't want to be held down, but everyone has a reason for you to keep your feet on the ground. It is the time you want to break out, freak out and make out, it's when everything is so hard to sort out. This is the time of your life when it's supposed to be fun, but everyone expects you to act like a nun. This is the time of your life when you want to be in love, call him and hug him, and let love lift you both above. It's when it's difficult to find one that is suited just right. It's when you stay up and wonder about him all night. It's the time when love seems to be a crime, but that's all you think about, absolutely all the time, when disappointment seems to cut like a knife, and the smallest affairs are the time of your life.
