Do not judge me
for making the same
mistakes you once did.
I'll not take the blame
for following the only
footsteps ever shown to me!
Do not yell at me
for a crime I did not commit
though you believe I did.
I'll not take your shit
simply because you refuse to see
that the criminal is not me!
Do not force on to me
a shame I should not bear.
For what I did,
I did because I care
about this man who happily
gives his heart to me!
Do not stand before me
now as some saint
who never did anything
worth complaint
because you once, stupidly
told everything to me!
Do not say "I told you so"
for I did not do this
for the reason you assume
I did it 'cause a simple kiss
can not even begin to show
the love that makes me glow.
Do not think for any span
I did this deed
for any reason other than
a deeply planted need
to give him what I can
a gift that's only for my man.
Do not tell me what to do
I love him more with every breath
don't try to say it isn't so
I'll love my man 'till death
sometimes you don't have a clue
There's nothing you can do!
Do not assume it's puppy love
that fills me to the brim
this is something you wouldn't
understand, not saying that your dim,
Just you've never known love
that's sweet and perfect as a dove.
Do not try to understand
something this complex
I'll explain it when you're
mature enough to say s-e-x
for that word has often fanned
the fires of paranoia in our land.
Do not try to stop me now
I've felt how love should be
Now that I do understand
I cannot for the life of me
explain the why and how
but I can say I love him now
Do not, my mommy dearest,
underestimate our love
we know what we are doing
when push does come to shove
he's the one who's nearest
to my heart and dearest!

yes, I know the rhyme scheme changes a lot. It's on purpose.

Wonderful work as usual. I like this. I dunno I saw a pattern in it...side to side, approach, and retreat, depending on the word, as if those were the movements to your oppenent. I saw, a lot of approach and right movements.
Good work girl.

Thanks for the comment first off... second, These kinds of problems are bitter sweet like that... they suck because either your in trouble or dealing with a hypocrite or both, but your right... it makes for amazing poetry... This poem came about as a way to tell my mum to back off when she found out that i'd been having sex with my fiancee. (no one knows yet that we're engaged...)
