Meant To Be Forever

A heat started at my toes creeping up my body Warmth engulfed me, voices now disembodied Pictures of me, you, and our babies such joy Funny never seen you as an uptight alter boy I drift back through time and all we have been through The love I felt so quickly even you never knew We climbed mountains to get where we were When it all came together on this we can concur Our time just us, how you always made me smile I was never happier until I walked down that aisle When our son came, no daddy felt so much pride Everyone joked how the baby they’d have to hide Drifting even further now I headed towards a light But I hear your voice crying out telling me to fight Looking down from above I see you crying Screaming at the doctors “No she’s isn’t dying!” Then I hear a baby crying cradled within your arms Is that our baby girl I swore none would ever harm Wait where am I? Did I just have our lil girl baby? Waking I tell you “ The papers have been filed, I’m no longer am I your lady!” “You didn’t care about us and your actions I cannot stand” “tomorrow isn’t promised to us nor can it be planned” “You see our kids need a true a parent and that is who I am!” “You see I stuck around your the one who left us damn...!” “A parent is for always and one who will always stay” “Here right now I promise I will give our kids forever and a day!” “You left me and your babies because you was so selfish” “See my motives are righteous I’m not being rebellious” You took the cowards way out Thinking only of yourself our kids you didn’t stop to think about Our dance ended then It was you who showed us, on you we cant depend So it’s this true love that you condemned, you cursed us and that’s why we have reached our final end
