    BE A PRAYER NOT A PLAYER

                               BE A PRAYER NOT A PLAYER

     

    EVERYONE WANT TO BE A PLAYER
    NOBODY WANTS TO BE A PRAYER 
    WE NEED TO REALIZE IT'S NOT A GAME
    ALL WE CARE ABOUT IS GLORY AND FAME
    WE DON'T CARE ABOUT THESE YOUNG LADY HEART
    ALL WE DO IS TEAR THEM A PART
    YOU ARE MISSING THE BEST PART OF LIFE
    YOU PLAY THIS GAME LIKE YOU ARE ROLLING DICE
    TREATING THESE LADIES BAD THAT NOT NICE
    YOU OUGHT TO BE LOOKING FOR A WIFE
    YOUNG LADYS YOU MUST HAVE RESPECT
    YOUR LIFE YOU NEED TO PROTECT
    HOLD YOUR HEAD UP WALK WITH PRIDE
    LIVE SO YOU CAN FEEL GOOD INSIDE
    DON'T GIVE YOUR SELF TO JUST ANY MAN
    THEN YOU ARE PLAYING HIS GAME
    IF ALL HE WANT IS TO MAKE LOVE TO YOU
    YOU NEED TO KNOW IF HE CARE THAT'S  TRUE
    LOVE HER!NOT FOR WHAT SHE GOT
    ARE THIS SAY YOUR BODY IS HOT
    LOVE HER BECAUSE SHE IS A LADY
    THAT'S NO IF BUT AND  MAY BE
    SO DON'T TRY TO BE A PLAYER
    YOU SHOULD BE A PRAYER

    In a society that is all about just doing whatever feels good,it is refreshing to know that there are others,who share my views about relationships and life.Thank you for sharing your beautiful,inspiring and indispensable words of wisdom.

    I really love the philosophy of this poem. It is so true! So many young people think this life is a game, and that sex is just a way of searching for a playmate for the present time, not for a life time. Young ladies and young men need to learn to respect and like each other for their inner-self not their bodies. To love each other, not lust each other. Times have so changed. This poem is truly great and so true! Very well written!

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
