You Are
U are one of the reasons why some
women are barren, with God looking
at people like you that he gave
children and u av failed miserably to
guide and protect them. You are
one of the reasons why we see the
streets littered with runaway kids
looking for a better life. To them
anything is better than what you
have shown them as life. You are
one of the reasons why there are so
many damage adults walking
amongst us as our brothers, sisters,
mothers, fathers, friends, bosses.
You are one of the reason why our
young ladies sleep with anybody and
everybody just for a min or two of
love and compassion. You are part
of the rot that smells in our society
today, that smell that just won't go
away. You are part of that secret
pain and shame we hold in our
hearts that stings and draws tears to
our eyes. You are part of the
reasons why a little child's face is
wrinkled with hopelessness. You
were created to be the best gift any
child should have but discover as
just another poison ivy. You are the
worse possible kind of traitor, for
your type of betrayal is beyond low.
You hurt for your pleasure and seek
to destroy. You don't stop until the
damage is irreversible. U seek to
justify your doings, telling yourself
that you know better for you have
been here longer but what you don't
know is that time changes
yesterday. May you rest your heart
at night knowing that the table may
turn on you in the morning. May you
taste that which you dish out so
mercilessly. May you hold scars of
wounds so deep you never forget
that which you have done. You are
the painful memories of our future.
