Wait


He smiles so cute you caught his eye. The butterflies start to fly. Innocent and young your first date. Excited and scared you can't wait. Then two more months and you're in love. You can already see the wedding doves. You throw away your dreams and views. Because he says he just wants you. A goodnight kiss inside his car. Makes you want to go too far. He's your first you're nervous to try. But he holds you close don't be shy. He bites your neck with a gentle caress. He slowly takes off the pretty dress. Shortly after it's over and done. You're disappointed it wasn't that fun. For nature's gift you anxiously wait. Weeks go on no doubt it's late. You buy a test the screen turns blue. All along inside you knew. You cry and realize what this means. And hope it's better than it seems. You call to tell the painful news. Two weeks later he says you're through. With all that you had said and done. You regret that he wasn't the one. You're just a kid now on your own. Left to give this child a home. You know for you it's way too late. But you tell your friends it's best to wait.
