Poem: My World🌎

I am the background, you are my world. The color to my grey..my beautiful girl.


 You are mine. No one else will understand my love for you. They couldn’t even if they wanted to..but to them you are just another baby. To me you are my moment of excitement when I saw the words pregnant on that stick. You are my mind hoping and praying that you won’t ever get sick. You are my 3 months of nausea and heartburn, my 8 months of googling anything babies that I could learn. You are my 6 months of feeling you moving, kicking and growing inside me, my 8 months of worrying if you are ok and wanting you beside me. My 8 months of anticipating and 8 months of weight gaining. You are my 8 months of uncontrollable hormones and 8 months of readjusting organs, skin and bones. You are my 16 hours of pain and labor, 16 hrs of fainting, sweating, bleeding, and crying. You are my early but healthy arrival, you are your proud mom’s survival. My 3 months of not sleeping, six months of making sure you are breathing. You are my eyes, my nose, my lips and toes, my fingers, my ears, my smile and my tears, You are my lungs, my heart, my brand new start..you’re my present and my future..I’m your doctor, friend and teacher..you are my soul, my life..my all. So to everyone else..you are just another baby..But to me..you… you are mine❤️

    She’s so beautiful. You’ve made me recall my sweet daughters at this age, thank you for that. Listen, you can delete this comment, I’m not looking for followers, I just saw her sweet face and a tear welled up in my eyes. Thanks Miss for your time.
