Life Unexpected

The media with their statistics goes on for days No man should be older than 25 these days Every black girl should have ‘bout 2, 3 maybe four babies White man responsible for wars & doing every black crazy Life is unexpected every life has its blessings Some people make it out the ghetto ‘kuz they passed all their life tests See me, I was cut from a different sheet of paper Went to high school graduated and got that stamped & sealed paper Life went just the opposite of how the statistics told me they’d go All until the period was missed and it was to the doctor I go Christmas Eve was the day and the time 2:32pm “Ma’am urinate in this” she said as she stepped out of the room These were the longest 15 minutes I had ever experienced in life Til’ she came back in & told me I conceived life Should I cry? Should I smile? I was surely unaware of what to do So I called my mother and told her I was gone be a mom at 22 She got quiet then she spoke guess the elephant had left the room Life unexpected, I got my blessing and my daughter is expected soon
