i'm trying to understand
how it is you feel
but in order to get answers
i have to wade through my own fears
and listen to my own insecurities
about why i want you here
i have begged you to come and stay
before our child's born;
silently pleading to be your wife,
raise a family with a common claim
secretly praying for a boy ensuring
he can have at least one of your names . . .
all right to lay down with me
make love and confide
nearly night and day you were by my side
me and this baby need something more concrete
what we are undertaking is no simple feat
and from two homes and two lives
how will the three of us ever be complete?
I guess i am disappointed -
although none of this was planned
you have been my best friend for ten years
how can you turn away from me claiming to be a man?
I want you to be there for me like you've always been there before
why is it now, after all this time you choose revolving doors
You confuse me by offering your love
and then refusing to commit
why can't you just make this simple
and make us permanent.
You have always told me i am your babygirl
for me there is nothing you wouldn't do
now that your baby's having your baby
just say you'll be in our lives forever, maybe just won't do.
