Shynell-Tasha-Tinina-Chana

Don't give it up yet,
no not tonight
double negatives
there will be plenty of time
to put it on him and make his afro grow
and create foggy windows
Just not now
I don't care he is a football star
and may go pro
You are my sisters, 
I love you
Don't give it up now
You control this mating game
it is up to you to slow it down
like a vinyl that scratches and repeat from the start
guys live for a chase
so don't let him down
therefore, avoiding catergorization
and placed in a spot with previous women
There is a lot of advice on how to get a man
and many more on how to keep one
But all you need to do is run from all
sexual immorality
and maintain your purity
I am a man I should know
Don't give it up yet
Where is the ring and romance?
Where is the invitation to meet his parents?
Beware, the "Marksman" is coming 
and selling tickets to his show
It is a showcase of all the broken hearts
and a space on the wall waiting for yours,
Don't be afraid to walk away
It only adds value and a ton of respect 
and make all sex moguls scatter
If he lacks respect let me deal with him
Read Proverbs 31
I look in your eyes and there is innocence and purity
I want it to stay that until Daddy walks down the aisle
with arms locked
dressed in all white 
I hand you over to your life mate
18 letters to Chana
One for every year of your young adolescent life
Focus on your purpose
Don't get sidetracked based on your emotions
Leave foolishness behind
When he tells you, "he loves you"
don't give it up now
When he buys gifts and flashes his wealth
Let him know you are priceless
Don't give it up now
When he asks you "to come up to my place"
Say, "you rather not now, because you know what it will lead to
especially if temperatures are high
I'm your dad
I know what is best
I know how you feel
but contrast to popular belief
you can't trust your heart
many a person has tried
and still ended up in defeat
you will do better protecting it
because out of it flows the issues of life
How can the heart distinquish between lust and love?
Don't give it up now
It will be beautiful 
once you gift your virginity 
on your honeymoon
passion without committment is only a recipe
for single parent motherhood
enough to end some dreams 
and no sex is that good.
Wait until you learn a little bit more about his childhood
The moment you give up the panties
The "Marksman" has won
and will move on to greener pastures
your hope for eternity gone.
