The moment I discovered
That I wasn’t alone
You were growing inside of me
Just like a clone
Everything changed instantly
Suddenly, my thoughts were all about you
I’ve never felt so motherly
This side of me was naive and new.
Suddenly, there was nothing more important to me
Than you!
I became 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.
