My New Name
Dear My Future Children,
Painful contractions
Beautiful recollections
Raising you through your life
Protecting you from the world’s knife
All my love I give to you
All my life I have given to you
One bright path has closed
But I wouldn’t change the road I chose
For you have given me a new name
For you have created a great change
I hope one day to make you proud
I hope one day that you will shout
That in this world of color
You are proud to call me mother
Sincerely,
Your Future Mother
