Sweet pains.

I will cry and never stop,

I’ll get hurt and go for it again,

I will face pain and call it sweet;

Only if it is my sweet pain…

I will feel your first move,

I will see you

Only as a foetus,

I will cry

At the sight

Of the creation in me.

Your life in me

Will make me nauseous,

Your kicks

Will make me smile,

Your position

Will worry me,

But your existence

Will always be priceless…

I will cry and never stop,

I’ll get hurt and go for it again,

I will face pain and call it sweet;

Only if it is my sweet pain…

I will await you

For nine months,

Carrying you around

With me in my womb

‘til you’re grown enough

To fit into my hands…

I will pray & fast for you,

Asking

The Timer of the timeless

For a sign that I’ll be okay,

That the sacrifices I’ll be making

Will be worth it.

I will cry and never stop,

I’ll get hurt and go for it again,

I will face pain and call it sweet;

Only if it is my sweet pain…

I will cry

For as long as it will take,

Laying on that bed

In such sweet pain,

Waiting for my offspring;

My gift from God,

The one He entrusted me with.

And

I will finally hold you

In my hands,

After enduring sweet pains,

I will rejoice

In your first cry,

I will dance

At the rhythm

Of your heartbeat,

I will rest

In the feeling of your presence.

I will cry and never stop,

I’ll get hurt and go for it again,

I will face pain and call it sweet;

Only if it is my sweet pain…

I will know

When you are hungry,

I will feed you

With food from my breast,

I will wash you

With my very hands-

And as you’ll grow everyday,

I’ll thank The Almighty

For such a blessing in my life,

And the sweet pain

That was worth it.
