If I Could Turn Back Time

And so my dream comes to an end.

It’s weird how things change.

I never wanted a child,

And now it’s ALL I think about!!!!

But I wasn’t ready all those months ago.

She would’ve been 3 months old now.

My, how time flies.

Why can I not let this go?

Why do I hold onto this pain?

Because I want her back –

If not her, another to replace her,

But it can never be

And so I hold onto this pain,

Thinking of what could’ve been,

And wishing I could turn back

The hands of time.

I wish things had happened differently.

I wish I could have my child

Safely wrapped in my arms

As I lay my head down

This final time…
