Please stop reading all of those young adult novels 
Like Looking for Alaska or the Perks of Being a Wallflower 
There’s more to life than romance and butterflies 
But you'll never learn if you keep on taking advice from 15 year old guys 

Don’t make it seem poetic that you met a boy back in high school 
And he was so sweet and cool that you wish you were not 22 
You’re living in the past, that boy is working at a grocery store 
While you work on your PhD in Sociology 

And everything you’d thought you’d learned 
Was a misreading of terms 
And now we’re anchored to illogical thoughts 
We’ll always be 13 at heart 
We’ll always be 13 at heart 
We’ll always be 13 at heart 
At least until we start reading Hemingway
