Temptation A Strong Thing Poem by LUZAAN de Bruyn

'IF YOU LOVE ME YOU WILL.'
THOSE WERE YOUR WORDS
AND I DID BECAUSE I LOVED HIM
TEMPTATION REALLY IS A STRONG THING
I DIDNT KNOW WHAT IT COULD BRING
AFTER WE SLEPT TOGETHER
YOU DISAPPEARED FOR EVER

WHAT ABOUT YOUR PROMISES?
YOU WOULD NEVER LEAVE ME?
I DIDNT SEE THAT I WAS ONLY A TOY
A TOY YOU PLAYED WITH
THIS TOY NINE MONTHS LATER GAVE BIRTH

THIS LITTLE BOY IS WITHOUT A FATHER
BUT I WILL LOVE HIM
I WILL GIVE HIM WHAT I NEVER HAD
HE WILL SMILE AND NEVER BE SAD

ALL MY DREAMS SHED TO PIECES
THINGS I WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO DO
ALL BECAUSE I LOVED YOU
DO YOU REALIZE IM ONLY SIXTEEN?
WHAT YOU DID TO ME WAS REALLY MEAN
