I am NOT a Prostitute!

           Do NOT call me a Prostitute!

 

I wear high heels, dress in tight fitting clothes, and layer on makeup everyday

To hide my true IDENTITY and INSECURITIES.

 

                                              I am NOT a Prostitute!

           Do NOT call me a Prostitute!

 

I did not choose this profession.

I was SOLD by my family in desperate times….

I was PROMISED a better life…..

I was TAKEN without consent…..

I am held CAPTIVE against my will by chains – money, pride, family.

 

                                              I am NOT a Prostitute!

           Do NOT call me a Prostitute!

 

I know the only way I can provide for my family or make them proud…

And my heart sinks every night as I am BOUGHT by a man who will rape and abuse me.

 

                                              I am NOT a Prostitute!

           Do NOT call me a Prostitute!

 

I desperately want out!

But am AFRAID and do not know how…

My chains are too tight.

 

                                              I am NOT a Prostitute!

           Do NOT call me a Prostitute!

 

My insecurities are MANY.

I do not believe I am beautiful especially after being REJECTED numerous times every night.

 

                                              I am NOT a Prostitute!

           Do NOT call me a Prostitute!

 

But there is HOPE….

There is LIGHT in this darkness.

All it takes is one person to show me Christ's LOVE to start a SPARK inside me.

 

                                              I am NOT a Prostitute!

           Do NOT call me a Prostitute!

                             I am BEAUTIFUL! 

                                                                                  Call me a BEAUTIFUL WOMAN OF GOD!
