Just a Fling

It started off as just a fling Nothing serious a simple thing Then my love for her grew deep It became hard for me to sleep People said we were too young Though we were she was the one Even still with feelings strong I was forced to do her wrong Cause I was just a scared young boy I played with her like a toy Then one day first period came I heard that girl shout my name I looked at her and walked away Not knowing her changes every day From the secrets that she had I learned that I would be a dad My time with her I did deny Now I wish I didn't lie She looked at me with such disgust In my words she once did trust How could I put her through such pain So I could be arrogant and vain Now the day is drawing near Would she still love me was my fear Or was my timing way too late To regain her trust and change our fate When I approached with teary eyes Her love for me she did not deny She told me that she loved my so And she never wanted me to go She formed me to a whole new man One who could love and understand So with the largest stomach at graduation I was her rock her foundation And as those 9 months they quickly passed I thought our love would forever last One night she called and I awoke When she yelled "MY WATER BROKE" Just as fast as my happiness came All my sunshine turned to rain The doctors made me leave the room At once there were screams that made my ears boom I tried to suck it up and hold in my pride But when I said I was okay it was all a lie The doctor came out all teary eyed "the girl u loved, she instantly died" "but your baby sir she's healthy and safe 6 pounds 9 ounces that is her weight" When I looked at you all I could do was smile My pain left me for a little while Now in you your mother she lives In the sparks in your eyes and the warmth in your kiss And though it started off as just a fling To me your mother was everything
