In a Perfect World Things Are Spoken (Originally September 1, 2007)

She lays her head on his chest
inhales a deep breath,
knowing that this will be hard.
He senses she's under some stress
and tries his best
to relax her mind and her heart.
She opens her mouth
but the words won't come out
only tears and a silent cry,
He holds her real close
and wishes and hopes
its what she needs to feel alright.
Under her breath she mutters 2 words
Knowing it will crush his world.
She feels his body go cold,
maybe she shouldn't have told
but the look in his eyes says otherwise.
He tells her

I've known for awhile
you were pregnant with my child.
I was unsure of what you wanted to do.
But whatever it is
I got u,
u know I love you

A slight mutter escapes her lips
as he leans over for a kiss
she said

That's not the part
that's got me messed up
but in order to move past
I gotta fess up.
Been seeing a guy
for about a month or two
not sure who the daddy is,
Its either him or you.
I'm praying that my mistake
will be forgiven by God.
And I'll understand if you leave,
cuz I'm making it hard.
You're the man of my dreams
u take good care of me,
but something inside
is holding on to insecurities.
I'm trying to believe
that what we got can work,
but at times I feel
I'll still be hurt.
U don't come home like u used to
and squeeze me tight.
U crawl in the bed
without even a goodnight
By the break of daylight
I awake to cold sheets,
missing the conversations we had
when our eyes would meet.
Now I'm longing for that closeness
we used to share together
and our relationship is headed
for a lot of tough weather.
I apologize for steppin out on you,
its not in my spirit.
I should've left when i had the chance
instead of putting u in it.

Still embracing her in his arms, he stiffens his body to her response.

I understand what I've been putting you through,
I'm sorry, I never meant to hurt you.
But the fact is I've been pulling away.
My father taught me that a man always stays.
Regardless of the fights and stress,
a man doesn't run from his problems....
but then again he doesn't confess.
Baby I feel the distance growing between us,
and now its my turn to clear the air.
I'm a lot of bit responsible for those feelings being there.
Remember when I went to Jersey and let u stay behind?
Well I went with more than inocent intentions in mind.
I went back to my ex, to test the waters
see what I might be missing.
After a few hours of talking,
I stayed the night and we started kissing.
Cuz I knew it was wrong I left,
I couldn't do that to you.
But ever since that day,
I found myself changing my mood.
It had nothing to do with you,
cuz you've been nothing but sweet,
but I need to find resolution in me.
