Ode to Life
To the day my heart started beating
you were so excited.
Rushing across town looking at all the clothing racks
Am I a boy or a girl they asked.
The suspense almost killed you
The baby shower was a blast I could hear you
laughing and having a joyful time.
To the day I was born
you were sleeping having happy dreams.
I thought it would be the best time to say hello.
Daddy rushed us to the hospital.
I didnt mean to put you in so much pain.
But im here now Mommy.
I’ve waited my whole life to meet you.
The next few days were long being held by
everyone was exhausting.
Tonight my chest hurt.
I cried to tell you but
the people in the blue shirts and pants rushed me
away from you,I was scared.
I could hear you weeping for me.
My chest hurts really bad mommy.
Hi mommy,I can see you now.
Why are you crying?
Can’t you see me?
I watched you leave the hospital mommy,what about me?
Can’t you hear me crying for you?
I miss hearing your heart.
Feeling your loving and smooth touch.
I miss being held in your arms
and smelling your sweet smell.
I’m sorry I had to leave you so soon.
Tell Daddy I miss him to.
I can still hear him. His deep voice
used to sooth me when I was restless.
The memories of you are sweet.
I will always love you.
Goodbye my precious family.
