Too Young

Only 14 years old, didn’t know what she was doing, but he did. Laid her down on the bed telling her “It’s going to be just fine”. Taking off all her clothes, taking yours off too. She didn’t know no better, she thought this was love. He knew all the right things to tell her, they didn’t use a condom. Two months later still no period, she is so scared. From the sickness, putting on weight, she knew what you had done. When she tried to tell you, you didn’t listen. All you said was “It’s not my baby, I used a condom”. Everybody was thinking she was a hoe. When she told her mother she was five months, all her mother did was cry. She was suppose to be her little angel, she wasn’t no more, she felt alone. Her mother not talking to her, the daddy not being around, she thought she was ready to die. But when she had that little baby boy, she had somebody to love. Now her life was complete again. She also missed going to parties, movies, just being a teenager period. She had t o grow up fast. Now she has a reasonability to deal with. She thanks the Lord everyday for bringing her son in her life. And for giving her this experience. Now she knows not to do it again
