To Be Faithful Poem by Randy McClave

To Be Faithful



I do not ask you to be faithful,
Nor do I ask you to be obedient and sincere;
All that I ask of you is to be honest and modest
And to me, never bring home any sadness or tear.

Don't be known as a loose woman around town
Be discreet and always keep your secrets in your bed,
To believe that your innocent, won’t make you innocent
Just be known to others, as a woman that's well-read.

Do not let others know of your secrets
And never let another woman know of your relations,
Men see a waste, when a woman is chaste
And then they base their own sexual foundations.

Never be uncovered when you walk in a room
Never freely show bite marks to others on your skin,
Always be doubtless, especially to family, friends and guests
Then no one will ever know, that you enjoy to sin.

I see the disgrace that’s in your eyes
From the other men that you willingly had said yes,
You have been immoral, about that, you I will not quarrel
Then only to GOD will be known what you did confess.

To be married doesn't give you virtue
Especially if you cheat on your husband just for lust,
Keep your legs bound together, so temptations you can sever
But to late, when I see you now; all I see is disgust.

Remember once again that you are married
You can’t do whatever you want or please,
But! Please always be safe and inconspicuous and careful;
And don’t ever bring home any heartbreak or disease.

You don't call it cheating or infidelity, but I do
Do you not even think of your daughters before your affairs?
I wished that you weren't weak, love is all that I did seek
Now all that I seek, is our deaths and prayers.
