Jailbait
You are a young girl with a woman’s charms.
Most men would love to hold you in their arms.
You wear perfume that emits a sweet scent.
However, you are under the age to give consent.
A man seen with you would make an embarrassing scene.
It will be a long time before reaching eighteen.
Older men in your company would look like a fool.
You are not even old enough to drop out of school.
Your actions are something I cannot condone.
Will you go away and leave me alone.
Anyone can label you as “jailbait”.
Please leave me now before it is too late.
