"The Night That I Regret" By: GIJANE

It started with a touch of a hand He was my all, my everything He gently kissed my hand and told me That he really loved me That night I'll never forget It started with a kiss This night of beauty and love This night we made love That night I regret That nighe we made a big mistake I'm 17 he's 19 Im going to have a baby People stare at me and talk I waddle instead of walk i look like a balloon Oh, what did I do? That night I regret The night I told him, The night he left. Here I am, alone Pregnant, and no one to hold Oh, what should i do? He's gone, nowhere to be found, I need him more than ever now Nine months later, I'm due anyday This is not going to be easy Where is this guy who did this to me? It's not his fault entirely I'm just as much to blame as he I'm on my way to the hospital now I'm due at any hour The contractions are growing stronger My heart is pounding harder It's over the baby is born A beautiful daughter Who looks just like her father As they hand me my daughter Memories run through my mind Memories of how this baby Came to me My baby needs a name Carol, Juile, Abby, Kim oh, there are so many I think i will call her Jenny Asleep in my bed, I hear a knock Silently he entered the room I open my eyes to see Jennys' father looking at me.
