Letter to my unborn baby!

By zhade and shanea

Because you have not experienced life

The thought of you makes me cold

As tears form around my eyes

I hold myself from crying twice

Now your mom would be my wife

But I became stupid rather than bold

Made too many mistakes and blew my tries

She was the perfect blend of sugar and spice

I never got to feel you kick

I never heard you try to speak

I never got to see you crawl

Or congratulate you on a successful pee

I missed out on teaching you life tricks

I wanted to be around when you reached your peak

Walk across the stage, proud and tall

We had so much planned with glee

But by gods hands we never got to see

“We” as in your mother and mi!

Eye wata fall pon mi pillow everytime mi tink of oonu

Mi give everything up fi ave oonu renew mi seh
