Untitled Three

Those inner longings,
those little fears -
they come and go.
    
I feel joy, and pain,
they are both there.

I feel love, and happiness
like I have never felt before.

But there are moments
when I feel torn - alone -
away from all I have known.

All the changes in my life right now -
are sometimes hard to cope with.

It seems to overcome me at times,
all the love and happiness,
that I have ever wanted.

It is all so great -
so wonderful!

To be able to have a child!
A child I know will be loved,
by both who took part
in its wonderful creation.
A child created in love
by two who love.

I could cry with happiness and joy.
