False Promises

Im sorry for not telling you before but I’m married Yes, I understand if you don’t want to be with me I know but I really loved you yes I did you know this No, I cannot promise to divorce my wife of ten years. But I do love you its just that my children wouldn't understand I’ll take care of you and pay for you to have your child Oh forgive me what I meant to say was our child No, you can’t abort your child I said I would take care of you I don’t know when we can be together again Please don’t call me at home I will call you when I return You can stay at the apartment for as long as you want I can’t tell you where I’m going with my family yet But in a couple of weeks I will call and tell you where to come Trust me, I do love you and we will be together soon Goodby, don’t worry about anything I will take care of you There is now a crying single women with a child and no Place to go and hospital bills to pay.
