Girlfriend, side tap, rebound, wifey Your contact list is a phone book You talk to them as if there just objects Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Sunday is free for church Church that you go to, to forgive your sins through-out the week But, you’re not sorry You just yearn for that forbidden fruit Men are in disgust of what you do You’re given that reputation of being a “pimp” You don’t realize what real love is Love is not an activity It’s not what’s done It’s how you feel You feel the warmth of having someone who cares And feeling the same back Don’t look for just sex Look for meaning Be the man you would want your daughter with She respects herself to not be a day in a week or a year But forever in a lifetime
