She's a tease,
she's a flirt.
She's Seventeen-
thinking she's all grown up
in that miniskirt.
Each look that she gets,
each leer is a thrill.
Never been hurt,
To new to know
looks can kill.
She finds an identity in men's desire.
Feeding the fantasy
that she
controls their fire.
The flames want only to warm her,
adore her,
do anything for her.
and while she doesn't quite believe,
neither does she leave.
Part of her claiming "Better to be burned
than be ignored."
