TheOtherWoman

She became the woman she feared
It happened so fast she didn't have time to stop, breathe, and analyze what to do next
Where to go next
How to feel, how to process
All she could think about was
How did she get here?
She remembered leaving her house
She knew she would stop by a friends house
"Just for a little bit" She said to herself
She had other plans besides this trip to see a friend
She never thought she would become the woman she feared
She always had her head on straight
Made the right choices
She knew how to stand on her own two feet
Yet...She found herself knocking on his door
Hoping he would answe
"Do not make me stand out here like a fool ya boy" She muttered under her breathe
She peaked in the house to see if a light was on
"Am I stupid for coming here?' She looked to the sky for anwers
"God, please show me a sign that I am not becoming her, the woman I fear
With no answer from the door, she left to head home...
Praying to God that she had no done the wrong thing
It is becoming too easy to turn into the woman we promise ourselves we will not become
It is not for attention, or company
I just want to get to know him
See where things go
But that is where things get tricky
We do not always get what we ask for
And God knows how to teach us a lesson, even when we are not aware
So do yourself a favor, and pay attention to where the road takes you
For the one second you take your eyes off the road, is the second you wish you had kept your head up, And not down
