~I Could Be A Yankee’s Fan~

I will never again have a first date

or be filled with hope and worry.

I will never again have first times

or visit passions’ insatiable fury.

I will never have to pick a best man

or choose between any of my friends.

I will never have one last night

or see the beginning of this end.

I will never be at our shower

or write thank you notes to our guests.

I will never get a chance to practice

or wear a different color vest.

I will never say or hear “I Do”

or be dampened by bursting bubbles.

I will never be toasted with wine

or be introduced as a couple.

I will never have that first dance

or spotlight my unbreakable mother.

I will never shake my father’s hand as a husband

or give another sister to my brothers.

I will never have a honeymoon

or stay in bed from sun down to sun down.

I will never have an anniversary

or have to remember what gift to give now.

I will never give my father another smile

or another chance to carry on his name.

I will never have a chance to give my mother a girl

or probably another of the same.

I will never be called a father

or see our creation grow.

I will never have those words of wisdom

that all the friends would know.

I will always be lonely

but there are worse things for a man.

I will always keep going forward

because at least I’m not a Yankee’s fan.
