I unconsciously touch my belly,
Mention a new life,
My legs turn jelly.
Every once in a while
My thoughts take a turn towards your non-existent smile,
Wondering if you'd inherit,
Your daddy's baby blues,
Or my chocolate brown orbs,
With a definite twinkle in those eyes...
Wondering if you'd have those messy blonde hairs
That your daddy bears
Or my brunette locks
That your father adores...
Wondering if you'd be, like your father, olive skinned
Which the sun has kissed
Or like me, with milk-chocolate skin
And your daddy's million dollar grin
But fate took your life from you
And you from me
Leaving behind a string of shattered hearts
Torn and broken apart
With no one to soothe the pain
That your lose has left to gain
