im sitting in the park by the lake
you know the place we used to sit
in the summer and laugh to our
hearts content. i loved your smile,
it made me happy to see you feel
alive, even under the moonlight.
but tonight im missing ones
company and i feel the usual
feeling of sadness creep up on
me, tighten me in its hold and choke
me till i am no more.
you always used to tell me that
you wanted a little boy. but as much
as i knew you'd make a great mother,
i just wasnt ready to be a father but i
think turning you down to 'live my life'
was one of the most stupidest things
ive ever done [which says a lot, because
im a stupid boy]
i wish now that we did. even if we were
young, fuck what everyone else thinks.
because sometimes i come out here and
sit by the lake we spent most our time by
and i think of all the things we talked about
but mostly i think of how i could of been a
father, how you'd be a mother, even up in
heaven and if i hadn't been so selfish i'd still
have a mini you while you partied with God
and fucked shit up in the clouds.
its stupid to wish things, i know. but i dont
know, it was worth a try. i miss you, verity.
i'll have a baby boy one day, just for you.
i promise.
