these are scribbles from when i was a teen till when i was 18  (hence the title!)
but to be honest, they may be from wee bit later times too, since i took a long time growing up... (if i ever did!)
but i do know they belong to an era when love reigned... 
and rained... 
and ruled my entire being... 
and wreaked havoc... 
again... and again... and... 
these are innocent utterances of a delicate heart, 
that was incapable of repairing itself in a hurry... 
and regaled in the repeated pain that it allowed to be inflicted upon itself...
and so, i have chosen not to edit them... 
and let them be.. 
in all their innocence... rawness... and even "juvenile-ness" and immaturity...
unapologetically...
