The Despicable Act

One faithful afternoon, He asked you out Said he wanted to you to be his girlfriend You didn't give him a definite answer You told him you would think about it Days passed, weeks rolled by He was waiting for your answer He called you to check on you You said you were not doing fine Because you had some issues He promised to assist you, and he did Then you decided to use him as your ATM With every passing day You kept making demands And he kept meeting your demands He thought it was your way of saying "Yes" To his proposal for you to be his girlfriend So he kept treating you special And you kept extorting him Without any form of hesitation He invited you over to his place And you kept giving him excuse Until one faithful evening You needed some money urgently And he was very busy at home You decided to go over to his house He was excited about your visit He tried to give you a kiss But you pushed him away He became confused with your action So he asked if you were not his girlfriend You told him plainly to his face That you are not and cannot be He realized he was just a magga and that his thoughts was just a mirage He became furious And out of anger, he forced himself on you You went home crying and cursing He sat on the floor in his room Weeping, realizing that he never had you Please don't misunderstand me This isn't me supporting or justifying The abominable acts of raping This is me saying to everyone "Let's put our house in order" "Say no to rape" #POETICLORD# (c) JANUARY 2019

Heavy. It is hard to see the light at times when you have been in darkness for too long. Your words and writing are deep and can show readers a glimpse of reality for some. Having feelings for someone who does not have equal or more for you is hard to face. Writing this you have the opportunity to change things around for others. This may help in a way not clear to people who don't understand all the issues in this type of a relationship. Strong points and clearly a time of discovery about life.

well spoken Debby, the world we live in is rusty, things won't always go smoothly unless we know where to apply the oil and grease
