Dawn

I thought I had you for a while but then it was dawn.
My pain was of you knowing it was your time to leave me.
I named you for just a short while thinking I would have had
you for a lifetime.
As I clutch my stomach you spoke to me in words I can only understand
"One day I’ll be back again, for good”.
My tears drenched my shirt as my legs became
cripple with pain.
As you clutch to my womb I heard you
say "I can't hold on anymore, but I’ll come back one day".
Now, as I sit here I am thinking of you,
I hope you would come back again so I can hold you in my arms.
You were my own flesh and blood.
As reality sets in, I know that I’ll never forget you.
You would have been my first child, but I hope you'll keep your word that you'll come back, my own flesh and blood.

Until we meet again my first born
