With Him or Without Him

I cried when I found out about you,
Hard, still to believe you are real
Came right out of the blue
But somehow I already knew
That you would start this ordeal.

I’m scared that you will hate me
Scared of the hurt that can be heard in your voice
I wonder what your future life will be
Without him here, I hope you still see
That maybe that was best choice.

I cry at the thought of you being unprotected
I’m scared of you getting hurt
Don’t want you to feel rejected
Hope you never feel neglected
I wonder if I should be on the alert

I will always be by your side
Maybe he, too, will be there
I hope you know that I tried
But keep up your pride
Because Mommy is always here.
