princess fiona is pregnant...again
by Nanette Bellmanyou have no idea what it's like to be me and hear,
what i would deem as a poor excuse for a woman,
say she's expecting a child...or her seventeenth.
i probably wouldn't care so much
but she can't even take care of herself.
let alone the life she's already brought into this world.
maybe i should be mad at her husband too.
i am, because it takes two to tango
and they both need dance lessons.
this world is already tough.
this rat race called life that we try and finish
or just survive, whichever,
is hard enough.
why would you pre-disposition your child
before they're even thought of? 09/18/2008 Author's Note: take it. take another piece of my heart.
UPDATE* 10-23-08* On 10-21-08, princess fiona lost that baby. and i'm a terrible human being.
