excitement:
one sheet of cheap paper
anxiety:
one appointment
doubt:
twelve thousand thoughts
agitation:
morning sickness,
fear:
the sudden gush of crimson,
loss:
i wonder,
now,
if maybe...
just maybe...
you weren't ready to love us.
i wonder
who you'd have looked like,
walked like,
chewed like...
i wonder
what you would have prefered:
chocolate,
butterscotch,
fireballs...
and i wonder
who you might have loved more.
but mostly,
i wonder what happened
to make you exist...
only to be taken away.
heartache:
understanding
one sheet of cheap paper
detailing every growth,
every change.
nine months
chalked down to weeks
and several tiny images.
week one:
conception.
week nine:
ear structure forming.
anxiety:
one appointment
scrawled across the page.
bloodwork,
ultrasound,
internal exam...
events that should be itemized,
stuck in the family museum,
clipped down to snapshot memories.
doubt:
twelve thousand thoughts
of names and pain,
of teaching morals and values,
of how to say "no"
even though sometimes,
i couldn't myself.
agitation:
morning sickness,
sleepless nights,
and the constant knowledge
that the timing might not have been right.
fear:
the sudden gush of crimson,
one frantic drive to the er...
loss:
..............

heartache:
understanding
that if it was what they say...
you may not have existed,
after all.
