Baby
how could it be
is there really
someone inside of me?
im so happy
im so scared
will its life be so fair
I tell everyone
reactions all the same
no congrats just blame.
its so beautiful
I don't under stand
am I the reason why
the reactions are so bland
as if I don't know
how hard this job will be
why can't anyone
be happy for brian and me?
they tell me to be scared
tell me to feel shame
tell me raising a child
isn't just a game
I know I say 100 times
to those I thought would cheer
not like the baby wasn't planned
why is there no love here
no grandma knitting clothes
no grandpa building swings
only mommy and daddy
doing baby things
