Love Before First Sight

January 23, 2009

Little one,
my precious darling.
How my heart leapt with joy
at the very thoguht of you.
The moment I knew,
I vowed to protect you,
care for you,
teach you,
and love you forever.
I have failed.
I lie awake at night
imaging your smile and your eyes,
the way you would laugh,
and even the way you might cry.
The tears are mine now,
those things I will never know.
My womb has betrayed my heart.
And, little one,
you are long gone,
taken from me, and with you
all of my love.

Why must the bounds of love and hate continually be so muddled?

Awwwh. I cried. Very touching. Is this a true instance? I'm so sorry if it is. I can tell the hurt you must've gone through writing this. I find it to be true that when going through times of trial we tap into our best in writing. Grief is a strong emotion. I wish you the best.
