The moment I realized
That I wasn’t alone
You were inside of me
Just like a clone
Everything changed instantly
My thoughts were all about you
And I’ve never felt so motherly
This side of me was naive and new.
Suddenly, there was nothing important to me
More than you.
I was so attached to the life growing inside of me
That I bewildered myself
Wondering if you were a he or she
I didn’t care what you would be
As long as you were fine
And all I knew that you are just mine.
Dedicated to my daughter
