Diamanté

My water just broke, it is time, pregnancy
The baby cannot survive in my womb, not without the liquid
I am ready to give birth no matter how painful it is going to be
My experience, a welcome to life, yet to be known
Many have been through the same ordeal and pulled through successfully
They are at this moment looking at their jewels

Who am I to deny this precious gift

I have had countless visions of this day
The day I push him out of this protective wall
and presenting him to the world full of possibilities and challenges
How will they receive him?
The ones closest to me are obviously going to say
how beautiful he is, LIARS!

For years I had great visions of this day, the worst vision is one where
I held him in my arms and he just looked at me without smile or laugh
And that got me to question myself if I took good care during my pregnancy
Did I conceive out of spite or love?
Was I taking the right measures throughout my pregnancy?

The best vision was when I held the newborn in my arms
Deep down in his eyes, possibilities of sparkles
And got me thinking, this is it, your diamanté,
rough as it is, you persevered to get this far
The time will arrive for you start polishing, shape it up and let it shine

Today, I become a mother and I am ready,
Clueless of what the future has installed for me
I am prepared to face the deepest sea and float for as long as I can
And to stand where there is no ground for my feet

We all have inner passions and mine I present to the world today
I am prepared to polish and create as many shapes as can be from my jewel
From this moment I am going to keep writing to a point where I can no longer do

Allow me to showcase, my Diamante`
