The Child Within

by Mandee   Mar 27, 2006


I'm scared for you
I'm scared for me
and I'm scared for the child within
this is so unexpected
i don't know how to feel
i don't know how to act
i don't know what to do

i told you this morning
that i was carrying your child
and i haven't heard
from you since
I'm only a month along
the doctor said
everything was fine

i walk out of the doctors office
and you're standing by my truck
i walk up to you and we embrace
you tell me you love me
and won't leave me
and that we'll get through this together

we stand there
holding each other
finally i let go
and ask you what you think
you say you're scared
but a bit excited

I'm scared
scared of what's going to happen
