Forgive meif I didn't sound
delighted
when you told me
your news.
I'm happy for you
I really am.
It's just that
last year
as I held your
perfect
beautiful
soft
warm
newborn
close to me
I closed my eyes
for a moment
and dared to dream
that the next one
would be mine.
And you've just told methat it won't be.
So forgive me
if I don't sound
thrilled.
I'm happy for you
I really am
and I'll smile
for you
tomorrow.
But tonight, I know,
when I hang up the phone
when I can be alone
I'm first
going to cry
for me.

it's hard eh.
reminds me of something i wrote once upon a time...
I can sadly identify too well. May you very soon feel the weight of your own in your arms. Although it seems so far now, may the wheels needed now start turning so that it is not as far as it seems.
I had tears in my eyes as I read that because I can understand so well what you feel.
Just as an aside, it's interesting how much better I felt getting the feeling into words and out of my heart. (thanks, SIS!)
And Smile -- amen! And the same to you all!
(hugs)

Sigh.......yeah.

Oysh!
It really does hurt, your allowed to have those feelings.
and it really does help to write these things down.
Did you write this? Now I'm crying too.
Thanks for the validation, y'all.
Rubin -- Yes. I almost always post my own creations; anything else is referenced.
Hey people
Don't know if anyone's still reading this, but if you are you might want to know - it's three years later and my baby just met the baby in this post for the first time, and they had a great time together! A few more years and they won't even notice the age difference!
