So you wanna have a baby
But are you ready,
To give away parts of yourself you don’t even know exist yet?
You thought you knew what love is
But have you ever held it?
Cradled love in your arms
That kind of love will change you in ways you can not fathom
until it happens to you.
Be careful who you have kids with
They say,
But can you feel the weight?
I signed away my life on a birth certificate
I strangled my own heart with my own principles
I knew I wanted to love this deep
But I didn’t know what it would feel like
All I know, is that I don’t know when I last felt truly happy
And it’s still
Entirely worth it.
