If I could…
I would bottle the feeling of leaning forward, and how you push forward with me as if you are trying to break through my skin.
If I could…
I would bottle the feeling when I walk, and I feel you move and shift inside me, throwing me off balance and making me move slow.
If I could…
I would bottle the feeling of your hiccups, and how when they jump out at me low and deep, my whole tummy moves, a quick left to right in each jump.
I would bottle all of this, because I know, soon it will all be over.
And that will be that. I won’t feel you within me, moving about, wondering if you like what I just ate and just what it is about fruit that gets you going so?
Instead, I’ll be able to hold you.
Settle your hiccups in my arms.
Watch your face as you try something different.
Listen out for your movements and discover what it is that you like to do.
I’m looking forward to meeting you… but I’ll never forget this beautiful, brief moment in time.
When you were all MINE. 🙏🤰🥰💖
