I'M AFRAID

What if I let you in,

Would you call me harlot?!

Would you say that I'm cheap now,

Or Maybe I'm wide!

What would you call me tomorrow,

After today,

Babe or Hey?!

Should I trust you enough,

To welcome you raw,or with condom?!

Please don't get me wrong,

For I'm just afraid.

You men can be cruel though,

So I need not to tamper with my future,

Looking into your eyes,

All I see is both Love and lust,

Which one perfects your action?!

Now in web of confusion!

What if after now,

You take me for granted later?!

Okay at this juncture,

I'm done!

I do no More!!

Sorry I have to shut the door before you,

Wisdom just sneaked in!!!

To all my beautiful ladies out there
