does mama always know best?


Mama said you'd come along.

A boy that i would feel free around

A boy that would teach me thing about myself that no one eles could

Mama was carful to use the word 'boy'

Because a 'man' would not hurt me 

The way you hurt me

A man wouldnt make me cry

and wouldnt want to make me cry

thank you for showing me what loving me should look like.
