My Baby: A Poem for my Baby

I am depressed because after 10 years of planning our second baby, my OB tell me the very bad news about my baby, it suddenly stop to grow and do not show sign of life with no heartbeat. But I am still hopeful that she will emerge to life. The OB gyn wanted me to come back after a week for her to know if it is miss abortion or just an error at her machine. I was shocked and afraid since that day, how can she judge too quickly, it’s too early to tell. But I keep on praying that there is life within me waiting and excited to live this world.

Out of agony I dedicated this poem to my baby inside me. And if you happen to read this post, please say a little prayer for my baby. I’m still full of hope that everything will be alright, together we can surpass this test and face life with a smile.

My baby, we waited so long for you

We are sorry that we set aside you

For we need to help first those who depend on us

And we couldn't help but delayed you to come to us

Now that we are ready

God knows how we wanted you to come

But it looks like you have grouch with us

And it seems you don’t want to see us now

My baby please don’t worry

I did everything to iron things out

And we already planned for your existence

You’ll be happy like those princesses in movie

My baby please stays strong

Get your full grip at me

Don’t ever give up

Because right now I don’t want to let you go

I will do everything

That our dilemma will end up in a happy ending

Wake up in a bad dream

Stay with me and together we will be happy.
