Shoot for the moon

TEEN ANGST POETRY: Vancouver, Canada; WHAT IS TEEN ANGST POETRY? Teen angst poetry is written between the ages of 12-18 (or later) when one is depressed or hurt. It is an outlet for the most "profound" thoughts ...or so you thought at the time - those "YES! this is so what I mean!" moments. Most often teen angst poetry has horrible rhyming schemes and very obvious metaphors. Common themes include: I am alone, No one understands my pain, I will never love again, Fuck you, Fuck off, Go to hell, and Life sucks.
