Best Spring, the Year 2015

I FEEL LIKE AN EXPECTING MOTHER
READY TO BURST...
BUT WITHOUT THE LABOR PAINS 
TO SEE MY CHILD IN A MANY A YEAR

TO TAKE OUR FIRST PICTURE IN A MANY A YEAR 
OURS WILL BE A LOVE SONG MADE OF TEARS
MY ONLY LOVE, MY SECOND LOVE AFTER GOD 
THIS MOTHER CANT WAIT TO HOLD HER CHILD
                HEAVIER THAN WAS KNOWN
TO TELL STORIES TO EACH OTHER, OF EACH OTHER
OF OUR MISSES

TO QUOTE A FRIEND "THESE KIDS SAVED MY LIFE"
THEY PUMP MY BLOOD THROUGH
THEY SQUEEZE AIR IN AND OUT OF ME
THEY ONLY DESERVE CAPITAL LETTERS
                    TO BE SEEN BY ALL
