Why
Why is it that there are more pregnant women in school than out.
. Why is it so many drop outs on the street and none being a man and taking care of their responsibilities?
It’s funny how men can call you through the time of pleasure but can’t call their sons on their birth day.
When a girl my age comes to school and is faced with the insecurities of high school and the great walks of stares and the gossip and whispering and all the prodding and probing of life.
I commend them!
It takes courage to stand up and
Say I will not be ashamed.
Everyone knows what the 3 letter word leads to.
Do I speak these words?
Because I am just like them.
No
I speak them because I see their wealth when others
Spit them out and look them down
Not knowing that was once
Ounce someone in their past
Not knowing that when you laugh you pick on that child
Inside
And my question then would be what harm have they done.
Were they asked to be born?
No…
But until the descion is made an for them to live until the days
And days of life come to them
Allowing them to stand up and acknowledge the fact that they will be better than there e parents
