Lay Down and Make Babies

"Lay Down and Make Babies."

As I walked into Wal*Mart this title came to mind
from the young females with children that I'd see.
Young females are still children themselves who don't
know much about themselves nor about their body.
They haven't lived and learned what it takes to be a parent
they're still in the female state and not even a woman yet.
Many are dealing with problems that they can't handle
they're simply neck deep with issues they'll never forget.
The Love and attention many of them sought was never
found but they did find one more selfish and immature as them.
She listened to the script that has been used many times
before she layed down and made a baby with him.
Laying down and making babies isn't a thing that the
children should have in their minds to do.
This is an irresponsible act for the immature quite simply
age doesn't make you mature believe me what I'm telling you.
There are older children who are still playing games
who are out here who are seeking attention too.
So they can't help their children who are pregnant because
they have drama in their own lives they're going through.
You even have cases where Momma and Daughter are
pregnant at the same time and you hear worse also.
You have males who will sleep with them both and when
Mama finds out many times the Daughter not the male has to go.
I write what I'm inspired to or what is given and many
times it's sad but it's the truth anyway.
Our Daughters and Sons are out here listening to voices
and what's being heard the sensible did not say.
The problem is one with a solution as all problems are
and it's of a spiritual nature as many can't understand.
The bottom line we are all obedient to a Higher Power
we all follow the orders as these Powers command.
Now the difference is one will steer you to do the right
things filled with virtues, and standards to live by.
The other will lead you into doing whatever makes you
feel good and what opposes the Most High.
Laying down and making babies without a plan for their
welfare is seriously irresponsible it's premeditated not a mistake.
What's sadder still is you have to get child support in order
for the child to be cared for yet another baby many will make.
