Out Of Wedlock

Blissful nights,

A sounded song.

Her tender smile,

Looked so wrong.

He waved goodbye,

no reason why.

Clouded eyes,

starry skys.

A kiss goodbye,

was all they had.

Haven forbid,

it was so sad.

A white horse,

she saddles.

In the boat.

Away he paddles.

The tears she cries,

are silent but dear.

The letters he writes,

are hers to hear. 

Forever waiting,

for a man who never there.

His love for a woman,

he will never share.

Her bump she strokes,

a night she'll remember.

A gun he holds,

a fight in December.

A shameful secret,

for a child out of wedlock.

They both now know,

there caught in deadlock.
