You wonder



You wonder...

Why it happened to me
Why some people are so against people sharing their experience
What would’ve happened if it hadn’t happened

What sort of sibling you would’ve been
How different life would have turned out

Were you a boy or a girl?
My heart’s always felt boy

Why the world wasn’t ready for you right then

That bump
Those flutters 
That secret 
That sense of worry

That day
Those words
That void
That heartbreak 

That journey
Those tablets
That op
That torture

That loss
Those tears
That constant ache 
That dark time

That recovery 
Those walks
That gradual improvement
That mistrust of my body

That second chance
Those feelings 
That pregnancy 
That fear and concern

That happy time 
Those amazing moments to cherish
That rainbow baby
That new life

That rollercoaster ride
Those memories
That little girl
That chance of a sibling

That shock news
Those twins
That confusion
That final gratitude 

That constant wonder what if and why
Those three siblings and you
That memory, never to leave
That love for all but still that loss
