I wrote down what I was feeling ...

L.P.

It’s dreaming about something then waking up without.

It’s begging for another member of the family- one without a snout.

It’s silently crying yourself to sleep so your husband doesn’t hear.

It’s bringing it up to him and he actually lends an ear.

It’s seeing everyone enjoy the holidays with their little one.

It’s wanting to show up his year with hope of a daughter or a son.

It’s having steady jobs, 2 cars and owning a house.

It’s having your husband say it’s because of finances we’ll do without.

Its knowing you have the money and realizing h a just scared.

It’s another empty conversation that literally went nowhere.

It’s wanting a baby with every part of your being.

It’s trying to persuade him to see what you are dreaming.

It’s dreaming about something then waking up without.

That’s what my yearning for a baby is all about.
