Damn My Brother

[texasheat]

A poem by a girlfriend of mine...


DAMN MY BROTHER,
WHY IS IT THAT A GOOD MAN LIKE YOURSELF
END UP IN BAD RELATIONSHIPS LIKE EVERYONE ELSE?

DIDN’T YOU SEE IT COMING ALONG TIME AGO?
IS THAT YOUR BABY HONEY? HELL, SHE DON’T EVEN KNOW!

DAMN MY BROTHER,
I LOVE YOUR STYLE AND HOW YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILY,
BUT WHY IS LIES, BROKEN PROMISES AND HEARTACHE IS WHERE YOU WANT TO BE?

SHH, SPEAK NOT, JUST LET ME GET THIS OUT IN THE CLEAR,
BECAUSE HAD YOU TAKEN YOUR MOTHER’S ADVICE IN THE BEGINNING YOU COULD HAVE
SAVED A LOT OF TEARS!

CAN’T YOU SEE THE GAME SHE IS RUNNING? SHE DOES IT SO WELL,
SHE KNOWS YOUR WEAKNESS AND WILL PLAY ON THAT SHIT, LIKE THE DEVIL
IN HELL!

TELLING YOU SHE IS IN LOVE WITH ANOTHER, BUT YOU’RE WHERE SHE WANTS TO
BE.
SHE’S NOT EVEN GIVING YOU GOOD LOVE, I CAN TELL BY THE WAY YOU SQUEEZE
ME!

DAMN MY BROTHER,
I KNOW YOU ARE TRYING TO BE A GOOD MAN AND MAKE THINGS WORK FOR THE
GOOD OF YOUR CHILD,
BUT HOW CAN YOU LOVE SOMEONE THAT DOESN’T LOVE HERSELF? IT GETS OLD
AFTER A WHILE.

WHEN YOU WALK IN A ROOM, YOUR PRESENCE IS WELL KNOWN
THE WAY YOU CARRY YOURSELF, AND A PERSONALITY OF YOUR OWN.

WOMEN SEE THAT LIGHT INSIDE OF YOU AND THEY WOULD LOVE TO CATER TO YOUR NEEDS.
DON’T SETTLE FOR SOMEONE WHO DOESN’T APPRECIATE YOU BROTHER, PLEASE!

I’VE OFTEN HEARD GOOD MEN SAY, A GOOD WOMAN IS HARD TO FIND,
BUT YOU ARE ATTRACTED TO THE BAD GIRLS, SO YOUR VISION OF
A GOOD LADY REMAINS BLIND.

BUT THAT’S JUST HOW IT IS IN THE WORLD, YOU REACH OUT FOR SOMEONE,
AND THEY TURN THEIR BACKS ON YOU TO REACH OUT FOR ANOTHER,
BUT WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO WISE UP AND STOP HOLDING ON TO SOMETHING
THAT’S NOT THERE?
DAMN MY BROTHER!

When You Feel Like Life Has Let You Down

And The Rough Winds Of Life Just Turns You Around.



When You Feel Like You’ve Come To A Dead End

It Seems Like No Matter What You Do You Can Never Win.



When You Think Things Could Not Get Any Worse

You Get Angry And Say “i Give Up” And Begin To Curse.



When It Seems Like You Are Reaching For Something Or

Someone

But It Seems The More You Reach, The Opposite Way They Run.



When You Say To Yourself “god Am I Getting Paid Back For Something I Did?

Was It Cheating On A Boyfriend In High School,

Or Making Fun Of Someone As A Kid?”



When You Pick Yourself Up, Yet End Up Falling Right Back.

When Others Try To Bring You Down And Knock You Off Track.



These Are The Times When God Brings You Strength Within,

So Don’t Give Up, But Strive Ever Forward Girlfriends.



Know That The More You Go Through In Life, The Better You Become.

God Wants Us To Use Our Testimonies To Teach And Reach Out To Someone.



May We Never Grow Bitter And Hate Those Who Have Made Us

Stumble On Our Way

For The Secret Of Eternal Life Is Learning To Forgive, And

Continuing To Pray.



And Always Know That The True Friend Are The Ones Who Not

Only Laugh With You

But Who Cries With You And When You’re Hurt Try To Comfort You.



It’s Good To Have Money And The Things That Money Can Buy

But We Must Never Forget

It’s Your True Friends In Life That Helps You Get Through It.



Yesterday I Ran Downtown And Looked At People Walking And Taking

Pictures Of The Ocean Blue,

It Made Me Realize How Blessed I Am, And Because Of God’s Grace So Are You.



Stay Strong Ladies, And Remember You Can Make Someone’s Day Just By Something Positive You Might Say

Because It’s The Little Things In Life, That Makes The Heart Grow Fonder Everyday.
