Beautiful Entrance

Pain searing through me;
My energy flowing away free,
Drained to the core,
I did not know if I could take more. 

Exhausted and weary;
So very bleary, 
I wanted to just halt;
To cease my body from this assault. 

There was no stopping this journey;
My path was set and stormy,
Onwards my fate was set. 
I could not quit just yet. 

I felt as though I had died so many times;
Yet, my body suffered through its  hurting crimes, 
Flowing through my body like chains of fire;
Burning my flesh with its dark desire. 

Just when I felt I lost;
That this battle had cost,
My life and my soul;
I finally reached my goal.

Your cry was like a baby lamb;
Your life penetratated through like a broken dam, 
Your little screams so astounding;
I felt my heart pounding.

Finally my little girl was born, 
And even though I was so worn; 
I could not stop looking at your beauty,
I was complete; I done my duty,

My daughter had breathed in her life,
My joy was rife.
I cried with joy:
So happy you was not boy!
