Don’t Love These Boys
Don’t Love these Boys
By: Mikayla Ratliff
I tell my friends not to love these boys.
Boys hurt you when you
love them.
They have other girlfriends when
you supposed to be their
one and only.
So y’all please don’t love these
boys, they gone crush
you like an ant.
They don’t care about you,
they not really in love
with you.
This my last time telling
y’all not to love these
boys. They
will break your heart and think
nothing else of it.
One day
y’all gone learn not to love these boys.
