My father did tell me

Men only want one thing

You’re a smart girl

Don’t fall for their mumbling

They don’t enunciate for a reason

Their intentions are never clear

& even if they claim they are

Don’t fall for it dear

I’ve never listened

I prefer the sweet serenade

Until the music is over

& only reality remains

It is then that it’s clear

He was right all along

Maybe not all men are the same

But he’s yet to be proven wrong
