The Father of My Unborn Child

Anger turned to joy,
With the news one day,
A little life was on the way.
Excitement in his eyes, a spark,
A future dream, a bright new start.

He told his mother, and brothers too,
A father’s pride, a love so true.
But when he came back, the light had dimmed,
The change so swift, the warmth had thinned.

At six months, the

Help me—
I’m losing my hold,
and so is the life I carry.

This plea isn’t empty,
this struggle isn’t obscured.
But you walk on by,
each face a silhouette,
each footfall loud as my moans.

I’m submerged in a wave
that cannot bear my weight.
Please,
just one hand,
before I fade entirely.

Song and Dance of the Unborn Child

Center stage, the fertile womb
has room and walls. 
The fourth will speak to you
with thumps and heartbeats
Loud and clear :
"I am here!"
New life cannot be ignored...






I love my sons.

To My Darling Unborn Child

Today I signed papers that would allow you to be brought up by a loving family who desperately wanted a child just like you.
Please don’t think that I relinquish all rights to you, because I didn’t love you or because I was selfishly thinking of myself. It wasn’t out of neglect.
I

Unborn Child

Unborn child,
wear your crown with pride,
let no man rid you off your worth.
Listen closely to your inner voice,
it holds off no lies nor truths, stay true.
Pave your own way, let not yourself go,
there are far more things to get rid of.
Birth your passions to life,
they will help steer you to greater heights.
Lean not on naysayers,

Nigh are the chronicles through infant lens
  that begins its long unimagined page,
and behold, all the world to its far ends
  shall in time be your playground and your stage.
But for now we wait in last days careworn
  a labour of love and bounty of life -
on my honour I’ll welcome my

My Unborn Child

© Francis Maugo

The day I received the good news
At the hospital after the pregnancy test,
I was overwhelmed with mixed feelings: happiness and guilt
The breaking of the good news to your 'loving' dad 
Washed away the happiness in me.
His response was  abort for I am not ready for the fatherhood

My unborn child, I was willing

Dear Unborn Child

Where do I start?
What should I say?
I would have loved to hold you in my hands
Kiss your forehead 
And tell you how much I love you 
You know your dad would have loved to hold you
Oh how I wish I could have told you 
Told you what an amazing man he is 
Told you how

Letter To My Unborn Child

Empathy is the first foundation of love
If you need to be loved then why others shouldn't be
If you need to be cared for then why others shouldn't be
Let only one thing stop you from loving and let it be death
Let it be when your heart no longer feel pain 
Let it be when your hands

To my unborn child:

I don't know what this journey has in store for us or what the future may hold.

But my promise to you is that I will be the best mother that I can be.

I will give you everything that you need and some of your wants.

I am not perfect but I will do

To my unborn child,
whom I will never get to meet.
I'll forever miss the sound of your voice,
and your perfect little feet.

I'll never get to hold your hand,
on walks by the lake.
I'm sorry I let you down,
and met your mommy too late.

I'll never hear you cry,
or get to see you pout.
I'm sorry I wasn't there,
and for

Life itself creation

You were a little creation in lifes making Which sadly has left my heart on the breaking. A grandchild created not to live on this earth At least in heaven youve given this ctuel world wide berth. And i can only imagine what your life could have been In imagination of what onlu

My Dying Choice I Live In Regret

To my unborn child, I'm so SORRY
I can't stop this pain, it's a non-stop debate of how it all would be

Painted images and thoughts constantly fill my head
I've tried to escape it but the only way is by being dead

I felt your every move and each kick you'd randomly do
I still pray to wake up
