Little Sister

You don't listen To what anyone says Claim to hate your life But do nothing to better it Run around with who you want Despite your parents' warnings Blow off your sisters, brother, friends Every time they offer help It was all just fun and games Until you ended up infected Visited the doctor Got everything fixed Thought all was well again Then came the double line Pregnant. Any color but white Your parents are against It's never stopped you Now, it's growing in you At a loss for words, No one knows what to do or say Always here and willing to help Just completely disappointed We told you to use protection If for anything, your health But now a baby grows in you You have a decision to make. Keep it? Your parents will disown you Goodbye home. Goodbye car. Goodbye phone. Adoption? Still have to tell your parents. Good bye life. Could you really give your child away? Abortion? Parental consent still needed. Money you don't have still needed. Keep it? Adoption? Abortion? What's it going to be?
