Would you hold it against me?

by @skye-2

He wanted it and he wouldn't leave without it I wouldn't give it and tried to push him away He felt so good in my bed, against me, teasing me I was given an opportunity and I really wanted it My morals are as high as the wall around my soul I have always reacted childish and now in University I chose differently I'm proud of myself for leaving, for telling him no Childish teenage boys who always want one thing will always be mad when they don't get it And now because I stood up for myself I'm punished Forced to see him everyday, now he chooses to hang out with my friends Crossing paths is unavoidable Shame and embarassment marr my face and wreck my heart But why am I embarassed? Why am I shamed? I can't answer that question Would it have been worse if I just gave in? Yes, I would feel better but my self respect and the respect that others give to me would be diminshed I'd feel like a whore, a lousy one night stand Not the way to give up my first Instead, I sit here trying to convince myself I was strong But all I feel is weak I want people to like me and to think I'm a fun person Is giving it up to every boy who wants it really necessary to do so? I just want to be there for everyone, be their friends, be a nice person So, that's what I will do with everyone including him Everyone has their issues, as I'm most definitely sure he does I won't let anything happen ever again between us But I'll be there because I won't hold it against him And I most certainly won't hold it against me
