A Decision

I know I don’t know u And u don’t me Ur still an existence A part of me I may not get to know u. hold u I might be be a foreign entity I know this all sounds silly and ur just a cluster of cells But I hate each word that is muttered about u it rings like silver bells I want to protect u Cluster of unknown truth Even though your the proof And I don’t know why maybe we can just be friends..... maybe I’ll just cry I imagine I’m doing the right thing I’m not sending u off alone The world is cold And I’m not old And my hand might not be enough I’m told Better yet I’m still your mother don’t be mad at me There’s nothing I can do Me and you we cannot be Our universes even yours so small Can’t find mutual mutiny So for now I know this sounds cliquey But let’s meet tomorrow not today I promise I’ll love you and I promise I’ll care I still do now even though your not there Just wait for me kindly up in the stars I’ll be your Venus and I’ll be your Mars Let me sing u a lullaby of my tears and my scars I’m so very sorry that I can’t be enough Let me embrace you in the form this unborn mother’s love
