Pick up your pride girl.
Stop letting your mind
and your emotions take hold.
Keep your mouth shut
and sit up like you should
and don't let him touch you-
not even a kiss
and God forbid
you drop that aspirin
from between your knees.
That purity ring burns you like fire,
its silver melts in the palm of your hand.
Why would you promise
something you can't keep?
But if you're going to break a promise
break it big.
Let him use you,
ask him to steal
that ring right off your finger.
Maybe then
and only then
you'll feel like you actually meant
something at all.
That love isn't love, child
At least, it isn't love to him
but you'll go to hell anyway
or, that's what they say
so it doesn't quite matter
how it makes you feel-
apparently we all
burn in the end.
So put down your pride, girl.
Go let your mind
and emotions take hold
but still shut your mouth
and sit up like you should
yet, go- let him touch you
go give him a kiss.
Don't worry 'bout that aspirin
it's on the floor now
and your promise is broken-
you can't take it back.
So, I wish you luck
with your new name-
****.
