I Never Knew

I never Knew:
How much I would miss my old life
What it was to be so tired
To be so scared
So confused, worried
Aggravated, mad, concerened
2am, 4 am
Doing 14 things at once
Being very familiar with crazy
The feeling of  a constant roller coaster of emotion
Bottles,slobber,objects in your mouth
Gas, constipation,sitters,doctors,needles,crying
Binkes,car seats,rocking,throw up,diapers
Formula,back akes,stretch marks,medications,baths
Emergency rooms

I never knew:
A love like this before
A heart, so full of her
How every heart beat 
almost says gg gg gg gg
The porpose of life itself
Really understanding what is important
Her
She is
She is me
And I am her
She is my life, my daughter
Its so worth it
Its so priceless
Man, I just never knew
A love like this
