a/n: hey yo so this is kinda weird but i was in a weird writing mood and here's some lil april thing i wrote in like 20 minutes. enjoy. A P R I L D A W S O N

how did you end up here?

holding some stranger's baby in your arms,

clutching at your phone as you anxiously await a message,

a call,

anything that will break the silence

you're just waiting

and he has no idea what you mean

when you say

"hey, can we talk?"

your heart is trembling in your chest

and for a brief moment

you forget you're supposed to force air into your lungs

she's not crying though

she starts to stir as your breathing shakes

and then she reaches out for a finger to hold

you can't explain

why you feel so guilty

as though no one will understand

why you kept this little girl

and you selfishly claimed her as your own

without even giving him a clue

then there's a message

he has n o i d e a

he's asking if you want to catch up

this is your last chance not to tell him

but you do anyway

and you can't explain why

he asks if he can meet her

and then you realise he can't

you can't let him fall in love with her you can't let him take her away from you

not even for an day,

or an hour,

or a minute

you just want her to be yours

and she is

but why do you feel so selfish?
