Instructions For New Fathers

"Spread the diaper in the position of the diamond with you at bat. Then, fold second base down to home and set the baby on the pitcher's mound. Put first base and third together, bring up home plate and pin the three together. Of course, in case of rain, you gotta call the game and start all over again."

When we met I just knew
Each and every day I wanted to spend with you

Although I knew it right away
Reasons kept me from saying it too soon.
Each day I wanted to scream it

However, I waited until I felt safe
Always wondering if you felt the same
Very scared that you didn’t
Increasingly wanting you to as the days went by
Not knowing if I should listen to my heart
Guessing your real feelings each day

And Longing for your touch each and every night

Begging you for things I didn’t even know I wanted
Always wondering if this feeling would last forever
Believing that it would never end
You are everything that I ever dreamed of and more.
