Bearing the Child of Another
Comments encouraged, welcomed, and wanted!
When I first saw you
After so many months you still had
That ‘follow me’ look in your eyes
A look that I know you give only to me
And I also know
You had been waiting all this time
For me to be free
You made love with a passion
I had only dreamed of
And left behind a seed to grow
To take his place
Now I must make a choice
Between what is said and what is real
And no matter what I do
Whether I sever all ties
Or cling to them blindly
The memory of that night will be branded
On my soul
Forever
