Age Ain't Nothin' But A Number
Folder:
Love and Hope A number that drives
my momma crazy.
Causing her to rant
and rave.
That boy is 10 years
older than you!
You ain't nothing but 18!
A baby.
A number that makes
me shout back.
But I like him,
I have a crush on him.
Plus you are years
older than daddy.
A number that causes
my father to chime in,
"Yeah but your momma
is only 6 or 7 years older."
And meanwhile I glare
angrily at a corner,
Because his little "2 cents"
isn't helping my case.
A number that makes
my brother taunt,
"Do you honestly
think he wants you?
A girl, a baby?
Don't you think
he wants a WOMAN?"
A number that makes
my face turn red with rage,
"According to my body
I AM A WOMAN!
A full-bred one too,
One that is ready for anything."
A number that makes
them all gasp out loud
then we turn our backs
on one another
and stomp away.
But then again
Age Ain't Nothin'
But A Number
.... Right?
