Accused Selfishly Poem by Bradley Lester

I'm sorry baby, I didnt know, what you had in mind
I wanted so to speak the truth, the words I couldnt find
I wanted you to have the child, I would have been so proud
To see the birth before my eyes, I would have shouted loud

I would hva cried the joyous tears, the child I would have held
So gentle in my arms that day, my feelings overwelmed
Your face would burst forth radiance, you'd smile and shed a tear
As life to you was given, without a doubt of fear

You should have told me how you felt, we should have spoken out
We kept our thoughts held back so much, we thought we knew without a doubt
I thought you didnt want the child, and you thought so did I
We both thought wrong about each other, we cannot this deny

Your pregnancy did not occur, it was a false alarm
Although frustrated both we were, we somehow sensed the calm
We understood what we had done, accused with hurtful hate
But that is now behind us, I hope it's not too late
