His Truth

I wrote this a couple weeks ago at like 2 in the AM. I was trying to think of something to write about and for some reason Drake's "Night Off" came into my head (hence the first line). Hope you like.

he told me to set my bag down
relax a bit
he said it would be just fine
all alone he said
just the night air he said
he said it was just us and the sky

he said it would only take a second
he said it wouldn't hurt too bad
come next to me was what he said
he said come here lie back
all those words he said to me
he said they were nothing but from within
from the depths it came, from his heart he said
he said it was from his brain not the head

so i slid into his bed with him
just like he said i should do
he said a lot off things that night
most of which was never true
he said this would last forever
he said the things I wished for was comin true
a night in heaven is what he said to me
a night in hell was what really seeped thru

now he said it would be what i wanted
he said "now baby this is all for you"
not knowing what i was doing
he said being not ready was just the start, i'll learn what to do
"i never said it would be easy," he said
becoming a real woman is hard
he said in time i would see how good it really was
he said in time i would see how it really was

he lied when he said it would only last a night
a first that would be like learning how to walk
a silent line is what i heard on the other end of the phone
when i called and said "we need to talk"
a little girl they said i was before then
only 15 years to his, mine minus 10
i guess he didnt lie when he said this would make me a woman
but he never said this is how it would end

men told me a lot of things in my life
but what he said was what i thought to be true
he said we would be in this forever
but i guess he meant forever until the baby bump started to poke thru
he said love was a tru commitment
he said that sex was the only way to truly prove
now i am stuck with what he told me
alone in the world without a clue
