I Deserve Better

You said you loved me,
I was your diamond in the rough;
You’d always be there for me,
Where were you when the times got tough?
My heart is broken,
I can’t believe this love is lost;
A lifetime price to pay,
For a 15 minute cost.
I gave you my everything,
And now I have one last gift;
God’s new great creation,
That started out as “just a kiss”.
I’ll never neglect this child,
She is healthy, cute, and sweet;
I know she’ll be somebody,
Then you can hang your head in defeat.
My baby is not a mistake,
More of a lesson learned;
Everybody is down for the ride,
Until we crash and burn.
