LETTER TO MY UNBORN

Before you are conceived, I think of

Who you are

How you are and

What you would look like

Before you are conceived, baby, I imagine

How your smile will look like

How your angry face will look like

Before you are conceived, I imagine

The sound of your laughter and

The "flow" of your tears

Baby, whether or not you will be conceived,

I can, already feel you in my womb

I can already weigh you in my arms

Promises are made to the living

But of course since they are also meant to be broken,

Then little non-existing one,

I can also make a few LEGITIMATE PROMISES;

I Promise to make you a LEGITIMATE matured sperm clot

I Promise to garnish my womb to make you feel and have a good developing “abode”

I Promise to pray for your non-existing soul’s safety as you develop in your comfort zone

And when you exist, I will sing the lullabies of God’s love to you every day as long as I have breath

I Promise on my womb’s honour, to make you smile when you’re sad

To kiss your beautiful tears when you cry and

To take every step of each phase of life with you to your future, In God’s name

My unborn, just exist and you will experience the greatest love of a promising-yet-to-be mother

Signed: To My Unborn, With Love.
