teen pregnancy...

let me explain
something
has been on my
mind for
the past
year
it has something
to do with
teen pregnancy
this is a glimpse of it:

i feel the
holiday time
now
definatly
is time for
christmas
we celebrate
and buy
and spend
and drink
and live
and change
and love
and do all
of those things
that make the holiday
special
but for what?
because a fourteen year-old
girl
and a sixteen year-old
boy
had a baby
and we all
shun the mistakes of
teens getting pregnant
and look down
on young
people
having children
and yet the first
famously known
case of this
is the reason
we go
crazy
and the reason
we have a holiday

ironic?
so before
you look
at a young girl
in her third trimester
before you look
at that young boy
strolling his son
before you
judge them
and
place blame
and
thank God
that
you're children
didn't make those
mistakes...
look again
and thank God
that He did
