Lollipops turn into cigarettes. The innocent ones turn into sluts. Homework goes in the trash. Cell phones are being used in class. Detention becomes suspension. Coke becomes vodka. Bikes become cars. Undies turn into thongs. Remember when getting high meant swinging on the playground? When protection meant wearing a helmet? When the worst things you could get from girls were cooties? Dad's shoulders were the highest thing in the world. you could wear a skirt and not be called a whore. The only things that hurt you were skinned knees. And goodbyes only meant until tomorrow? And we couldn't wait to grow up?
