Selfish Pride

by Jess   Jul 28, 2007


We were both 16
We thought it was right
As we did it
That lovely night

A month went by
So did THAT week
A friend didn't visit
I just freaked

I was too young
I had a life ahead
But i was calmed down
By all the things you said

You promised all these things
Like you would be there
You would never give up
You will always care

Four months went by
Since you walked out my door
You left us alone
You left me sore

I couldn't believe
You did this to me
That you had your fun
And left me to be

I couldn't believe it
How you coward out
I thought you were the one
I had no doubt

But this is the poem
For ally our fakes
The one who ran
And caused all the aches

At least we were man
Enough to have our kid
And take care of it
And live up for what we did

We didn't give up
Out of everything
We stuck it out
For what the future brings

We had to quit high school
We had to live our daily life
With no ways out
We lived with the strife

We missed out
On our young age
We were the ones
Trapped in the cage

We worked so much
To give our kid a life
To be the best parent
We had to suffice

With nothing at all
We have gotten by
We live with our kids
With no lies

As you live
With no worried at all
With high hopes for the future
And no tears that fall

But it is OK
Even though we are poor
Are hearts are kind
Our spirits soar

We have the greatest gift
The gift from above
The gift of a child
Something to love

So go ahead
With your selfish pride
GO AHEAD!
We don't need your by our sides

We are stronger
Then you will ever be
We are better
You will one day see

And don't come back
With more lies
We don't need you anymore
We have gotten by

So too all the men out there
Who has left there girl
When your are a part
Of her life being in a twirl

TO me and the world
You are a waste of air
You are a loser and a coward
And i don't care!
