"Fear of Fatherhood"

In a quiet room,
Sits a fearful boy,
He sealed his doom,
With one moment of joy,
The feeling was worth it,
For the time being,
But his freedom he will forfeit,
At the child he's foreseeing,
And now he sits shaking,
With a mind full of thought,
With hopes that she's faking,
This child that she's got.
