Nine Months
It has been nine months since you died
the same amount of time it takes for a baby to grow
inside a mama's body
you were indeed a part of me,
and your death was literally losing a part of myself
I do know that you know peace now
that you hadn't known on earth since your
mental health diagnosis but I miss your
beautiful face, your voice, and your most
amazing stuffing squeezing hugs
We will meet again, my son,
you are loved and missed!
