BELLY ALL SWOLLEN
BABY INSIDE.
WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT
THAT MY MAN WOULD LIE.
HE SAID IT WOULD NOT HAPPEN,
NOT THE FIRST TIME ANYWAY.
BUT!
NOW HE IS GONE AND HERE I SIT.
BELLY ALL SWOLLEN
BABY INSIDE.
HOW DO I TELL MY MOTHER
WITH TEARS IN HER EYES
CUSSING UNDER HER BREATH
WHILE STANDING BY MY SIDE.
BELLY ALL SWOLLEN
BABY INSIDE
