  • They say it's a blessing but who am I

    THEY SAY IT'S A BLESSING BUT WHO AM I?

     

    I was only 16 years old when I had my first daughter

    And my parents named her "GRACE"

    But I never saw it as a grace from God

    Because what I did was a sin

     

    I got fooled by material things

    Which made me believe that true love is SEX

    And at that time all I wanted was to be with him

    So I had no choice than to give away my virginity

     

    I became a teenage mother

    Who made her own daughter suffer

    By allowing her to grew up without knowing her father

    And still you want me to call myself a believer

     

    I know that the bible says"we are all equal"

    But I don't see the equality between a believer and a sinner.

     

    Why do I have to call myself a true believer,

    While knowing that my lifestyle doesn't link up to that.

    Why do I have to call myself a true believer,

    While I know that I made a sin by giving birth before marriage.

    Why?

     

    My daughter might be a blessing.

    But who am I?

     

    Who am I to proudly say I'm a mother at this age ?

    Who am I to uplift my pride knowing very well that my daughter is a product of sin?

     

    They say it's a blessing but I still don't get it why

     

    Guffy thee poet🔥
