The baby looks just like you Lots of people say it I tell you often He has your eyes Your lips Your Ears n nose As he's getting older the resemblance is more obvious He needs fresh air Going for a walk I collect your cigarette **** Lots of thoughts eating away at me We've been friends for years "me n her" Hope I'm wrong But we always seem to be babysitting You never refuse ? The old sayings -" I never took notice of before" Didn't really understand just what they meant Haunt me ! Playing over in my restless mind "Familiarity breads contempt"! Two's company 3's a crowd ! I head straight to the doctors office I hand your cigarette end to him He collects the baby's DNA I wait I wonder just what DNA stands for My name gets called out The results are in, ! Tension rises in every part of my being Sweat drips down my spine I feel I've stopped breathing As my racing heart beats in a loud deafening tone It's confirmed My life's just crumbled In a moment of time My identity ripped to shreds I'm no longer A best friend A god mother Your wife I wonder have I done the right thing ? "Curiosity killed the cat"! Another old saying Just realised what DNA means. DO NOT ASK!

Two's Company-Three's A Crowd !
