You have never
Loved
until you hold your child
brand new and innocent
and welcome them
into this world
you have never given
until you breathe life
nurturing and unselfish
patient and kind
to your new soul
and you have never lost
until they are
stripped and taken from you
selfishly and deliberately
in the middle of the night
by the shadow we fear
is death
from your Loving arms
