| BE CAREFUL DON’T GET BURNT Flaunting your body Is not a good idea People start looking At you very weird You may think you’re secure But you could be in danger Of being lured And before you realize it You’re running in fear Be careful don’t get burnt Hopefully this is Something you’ve learnt Wisdom comes with maturity Or you could end up Losing your purity In today’s society It’s become fashionable To bare it all But the danger in that Is you’re most likely to fall Your body is precious And your true beauty Is within you This is a reflection Of the real you Self respect gives honour To your body But acting brazen You become shoddy Putting yourself in a position To be sexually molested Causes others to sin into temptation This is a serious violation Think about the way you dress Who do you really want to impress We also have an obligation And that is setting an example For the next generation © Natalie Price June 2009 |
THINK BEFORE YOU DO THE DEED A new baby on the way But you’re not happy And it will not go away Taking responsibility For this new life May involved In you taking A new wife This is something You did not expect But it’s not fair On the child If you have any regrets How would you Like to feel rejected Without being loved And accepted Your baby has needs If you did not want The child in the first place You shouldn’t have Done the deed A new baby is a joy Not something to stuff Away as a toy From the moment Of conception Your baby Needs affection A seed of love Is planted in the womb Nurturing your baby With love Will grow and bloom This is well away From the gloom and doom © Natalie Price June 2009 |
| SILENCE IS MY REJECTION I feel so left out of things Mum and Dad close the door We don’t talk as a family Or do things together anymore Meal times are the same We sit in silence Except when They call my name They’re always to busy To give me any time And reject my hugs Which I think is so unkind There is no affection in our house If they do speak, it’s only to rouse I feel deeply hurt inside And I often go to my room Hide my feelings and cry I don’t think they care any longer My heart is wounded I need to get stronger I’ve built a wall around myself As they only care about their wealth In my despair I started to pray The Lord has given me comfort He looks at me in a different way © Natalie Price May 2009 |
FORCING INTIMACY I’ve met this cool guy But I am rather shy He tells me that he Really likes me And I’ve only known Him a few days But now he wants Things to go further And he doesn’t Listen to what I say I’m not really ready For this kind Of commitment And I don’t want To get myself in Any kind Of predicament He says I must not like him If I don’t say yes Now I’m under So much stress I don’t want To lose him But I know I will If I refuse him Inside me I know This is not right If I give in to him I’m not very bright It’s hard when you Like someone so much But I don’t want to give in To him and be touched If this guy really liked me He would understand So I refuse to fall For his persistent demands And would be far better off One day waiting for the My special right man © Natalie Price May 2009 |
| PROTECTION IS BETTER THAN
INFECTION A nasty rash What could it be It’s so sore and Inside of me I feel so sick It hurts so much I wonder If it happened When I was touched I should have listened What I’ve been taught These look awful Horrible looking warts My boyfriend refuses To take any advice He says it’s like Wearing a raincoat And it’s not nice Protection is better Than infection If I become pregnant I can pass it on To my baby And it just Goes on and on I know there are many Serious diseases I’m sick of My boyfriend’s attitude Wanting unprotected sex As he pleases He just laughs at me And sometimes swears Consideration Shows that you care I need to get rid Of this guy Because sometimes These diseases Can cause you to die © Natalie Price June 2009 |
CHANGE YOUR LIFESTYLE BEFORE IT DESTROYS YOU It’s not cool to do drugs The types you meet Are usually thugs Marijuana Affects the brain And can lead to Far more Serious Drug use like cocaine Your confidence Is affected Then you start To feel rejected Society shuns you Your family suffers For what you put Them through Your health is under Serious threat Anxiety sets in And you really Start to sweat Long term Drug use Is serious Many users Become delirious It can lower the Sperm count In males And increase The risk Of infertility In females Reduces Your sex drive And you May not survive Change your lifestyle Before it Destroys you Your life Can be worthwhile You need To make changes It’s well overdue © Natalie Price June 2009 |
| I FIND IT HARD TO TELL MUM Mum goes to work all day She leaves me at home While her boyfriend stays When it’s getting dark He makes suggestive remarks How do I tell my mum What can I say She really likes him And thinks he’s okay His eyes follow me Around the room Even when I’m sweeping With the old wooden broom I feel so uneasy When I’m at home with him Even when I put the Rubbish In the bin He watches me do everything My skins crawls knowing He thinks of me that way I wish he would leave our home And find another place to stay I try to avoid him As much as I can He tries to get close to me Especially with his hands This situation could Get out of control I feel like I’m trapped In a big black hole We live out of town Far from anyone else I can’t even yell To the nearest house I should try to tell someone Before he offends I find it hard to tell mum Maybe I should tell Her friends © Natalie Price 7th January 2010 |
