We As Women : Poetry

Alright this has been on my mind heavy for a while now
and I think it's time that I let my thoughts be known
Like us all I've been hurt, so I make this vow
To focus on myself in a positive tone

God created every human being with an intention,
with a purpose and with the ability to achieve
but hatred and lust continues to fill the nation
because of the first sin committed by eve

But after that a set of instructions were given to us
The people before us suffered so we wouldn't have to
So when pressure teases and you give in, thus
know your suffering is caused by you. not him or her but you.

In Corinthians the bible speaks on fornication 
Saying that those people shall not inherit the kingdom of God
Is a moment of pleasure worth an afterlife of agony? damnation?
By then you'll realize these earthly treasures couldn't compare to those above. *Applaud*

But it feels so good you say. I can't stop. I lose myself completely in the moment of it all.
Hearts pulsating, pores precipitating, body glistening, lust winning
Nine months later you find yourself stuck in between a wall
Eyes begin to shed tears of anger, hurt, regret, sadness because you're sinning

Thoughts of uncertainy and confusion begin to flood your mind
Looking for the father of your child with wet eyes, dry pockets, and an broken heart
Expecting him to give time freely when the streets have him bind,
Maturity. Something he lacked from the jump but you failed to realize that part

How can you expect full commitment to a child when he has no full commitment to you?
His mind and time are else where. in the streets, on money, on other women
Yet you fight and fuss at how dead beat of a father he is but honey, get it clue
You weren't saying that when the stroke hit dead beat, stomach deep then repeat, skeet skeet way back when

You see, for every action there's a consequence good or bad
Even though your price to pay may be higher than the next
But surprises are for the unknowing, so never cheat yourself for the good you had;
When you knew better, yet chose to do worse for the temporary satisfaction of sex

I mean we need to stop trying to find people to blame for the problems we endure
We as woman are deemed the number one care taker of the life that grows within us
Though your heart may feel shattered believe me its not, how am I sure?
Well if it was you wouldn't be able to be reading this, would you? Plus

If we can admit that the desire to be loved takes over: the confession of plenty
Than we'll understand why we find ourselves getting over an individual versus moving on from them
You see, Real love internally eternally exists and never fails to be expressed to many, by many through many
Love is genuine so relationships with ulterior motives will cease to exist like a rare gem

Know when to exit the premises of a bound relationship
You cant stay in a dangerous place expecting not to get hurt
God gave us the ability to obtain knowledge to be equip
So may your heart and brain coexist in your decision to be overt, alert I pray you exert .. these words
