Crumpled paper lined the floor,
written words that did not fit.
Broken pencils mocked my torment,
As my newborn son sighed in his sleep.
How do I tell his father
that his life is changed forever?
Nine months of deception
leaves me in this darkened room alone.
Nearly a year of sleepless nights and
angst over my lost figure holds
power over my mind,
making it ever more impossible to concentrate.
Can heaven's eyes see my terror, focus in on my pain?

He stirs in his sleep, crying to be held.
Cradling my son for the first time alone,
my breaths short and shallow, I watch as
He deepens himself into my chest,
trusting me completely, never questioning
his dependence upon his young mother.
It wasn't until then that I knew what to write.
'My dearest love, we need to talk.'

if i'd only thought of something charming to say..." -death cab
