A Mother With No Child

It's the saddest story you will ever hear Tragedies, can't even come near It's about a lonely woman with no child She wanted one to make her life go wild A young lively kid who brings trouble Average would be fine, even double She wants to bear a child so badly Never ever will she have one, sadly All the kids and parents have such joy Their bonds are always ready to employ She cares for all kids, like a mother As if they were her own, not another But she never felt the parenting bond Of that, she's not quite fond Blames herself for all the mistakes Never knew life will sour her cakes She goes mad day after day When will her kid ever come to play? Will she ever break out of this sorrow? Will there be a brighter tomorrow? Waiting for her eternal dream A ray of hope to fall, a beam Some miracle to coincide So she is no longer, the mother with no child

Wow Ali Gail is right...you are very talented. Powerful writing. I have a friend who dealt w/ infertility for many years and it was hard on her. I hope you get your child soon.

Thanks, although the poem isn't about me though. I'm a guy and still a college student but i can understand the pain of not bearing a child, i can see the painful expression on a woman's face specifically because being a mother is too special for her.
