How Could You

how could you tell me that you love me 
how could you tell me that you cared 
how could you tell me that you were always going  to be there.
how could I have been so stupid and believe everything that you said ,
but all that came to a end when we ended up in the bed I trusted  you but you let me down now im six month pregnant and you nowhere to be found.

You claim  that its not your child. you say I’m a hoe but if my memory set me right that you were the only nigga knocking  at my door.

So you need to step up and be a man and accept your responsibility 
and stop playing these games cause it hurting your creditably to every see the child that we made so beautify.

So you say you wont a DNA test to prove if its your child but once it says that you are the father its going to be worth while 
cause you going step up and be a man and do whatever you can to make sure that our child has the best life it can 

Its your child and now you wont to be with me telling me that we are going to have the most perfect family.

No, never again will I fall for you cause not to long ago you was saying I was a hoe that was sleeping with every nigga that came kockin at my door. come to find out you was the only nigga knockin but still you made everyone believe that I was nothing but a hoe.

Sorry is all I every hear you say but sorry doesn’t make everything ok. you put me though hell and back and now you must pay cause slandering my name is the street is not ok....

Nicely put Gerica! Tell it as it is -men should step up and take their responsibility. I like how you've brought up the theme -the betrayal and finally the resolution. Nice!

Gerica, firstly I like the strong message, unfortunately (if it's real) you are not the first and won't be the last, it has a good flow, I like the first stanza the most, though here in UK we would not be allowed to use a certain word you use quite freely, I don't know if you are American, or even if that same word is allowed there or not? still a very heartfelt poem, just my opinion!..David
