Unknown

I wonder what its like To be a woman who conceives A life grows inside her That started from a seed. I wonder what its like To feel this wonder move inside Kicking, jabbing, turning Of this I am mystified. I wonder what its like This pain of giving birth Something women endure The suffering is well worth. I wonder what its like Holding a baby of your own But for women like myself This will forever be unknown.
