Momma's Words


Hey Baby,

 

We will never meet

But we will always be a part of eachother

Your DNA

And mine

Halfway intertwined

 

You will never take your first breath of air

I will never get to hold you and look you

In the eyes

And tell you how much I love you

 

Hey Baby,

This will be your name

For I don't know

If you’re a boy or girl

 

I will never get to watch you

Score your first point on the court,

Go on your first date,

Baby I will never get to watch you grow up

 

I won’t have the chance to hold your hand

When you’re scared

Darling I won’t ever have the chance to hold

You in my arms when you’re sad.

For a mother’s hug is the ultimate cure

 

Baby you will never know me

And I will never know you

But Baby,

I am so so sorry for the life

You could of had

 

I love you Baby

 

-The mother you will never know
