"Come Inside"
I pulled up to a truck stop on the side of the road
Or at least that's what I remember being told
And as the morning unfolded I saw within view
The sunrise climb higher upon this quiet avenue
I could almost feel the regret of sin building within
I knew I should have stopped that before it could begin
But I must inform sadly I had lost control
I gave her my trust and her purity I stole
I was not ready to be the father of a baby boy
In fact I had planned on moving to the state of Illinois
What annoys me now is how life can change within hours
Or seconds with mistakes that devour my power
But she was grazing me with her manicured fingertips
As she bit my tongue and licked her lips
She wanted it more than I had thought so before
She dragged me down onto the hardwood floors
But I really didn't want to give it all to her
Especially since the drinks made that night such a blur
She was still young and vibrant with a whole world to gain
Come to think of it I couldn't even remember her name
That entire night called for a dire need to restrain
Myself but I tainted the walls with a fresh set of paint
Because she told me to come inside and don't be shy
As she winked her eye; she was oh so sly
My face lit up and became suddenly lukewarm
Like the mist in the air during a gentle summer storm
She knew exactly what to do and had all the right moves
That proved she was more than just in a drunken groove
But what were her intentions?; what if I slipped?
What if this scene wasn't written in my script?
Neither of us were considering futures at stake
Our streams were colliding into one giant lake
And so it ended as fast at the break of dawn
Before I knew what happened I had come and gone
Never to be seen again until the nine months that passed
When I received a phone call during one semester of class
It was that girl that I had met nine months ago
She told me she had a mistake she needed to forego
She was infuriated and blamed it all on me
I really didn't need this at a quarter to three
But now here I sit at the truck stop on the side of the road
Remembering that night or the stories that were told
I gripped the little bundle of joy lying next to me in aches
And said, "I love you son for you are not a mistake."
By the way awesome job!
and thank you!
