Just Another Victim


We all want to be happy. Fall in love, get married. 

We all want that fairy tale ending. 

 We fail to see the evil in the poeple we say we love. Because we don't know what love is. Or the damage it does.

We as females in today's society goes through the tests of "Does he really love me?" 

We fight the urges of letting go of our virtue. To please a man who may not want YOU.

We put his needs before our own. Because if he's happy, he's loyal.....hopefully. 

We let his touch take us in. 

We let his kisses consume our souls.

We let him do things we know are not right. BUt it feels better and we're in love right?

We fall victim to his past escapades. 

We don't see through his charade. 

We fall vitcim and it's too late. 

We're the majority with HIV/AIDS all because we've thought we were the only one when we were just anothere victim.
