You're Gonna Be A Dad

I sit in the bathroom
Looking at the test
Hoping it would be different
Not like the rest

"Positive" it reads again
As the other two had
How am I going to tell him
That he's going to be a dad?

My eyes blur with tears
And drip down my face
Should I tell him now
Or wait a few days?

The questions spin rapidly
My heart is throbbing
This up-coming problem
Has no easy way of solving

The phone goes off
I hear his voice
The decision is made
I have no choice

"Sweetie, we need to talk."
My voice is gagged
"Congratulations,
You're gonna be a dad."
