Hey Girl Poem by Michael Gelb

Girl

Why let yourself get pregnant and put a hold on your life
Why not wait till your older and become a wife.

Life could be better for you if you stay in school
Listen to your parents and follow their rule.

Life could pass you by if you become a young mother
You may lose your friends to another.

Why let a guy change the future or your life
He may just leave you to go enjoy his life.

When the time comes and your baby is due.
Will that baby’s daddy be there for you.

Will he support you and your child
Will he go to another girl and child.

Being married, misses would be your proper title
Baby’s mama is what kind of title.

Being called a baby’s mama in your life
Better sounding words are a mother and a wife.

Having a husband you could have a better life
Think of your future as husband and wife.
