Literature Text

I dreamed of you last night
Oh, how perfect you were
Brilliant white cheeks; tinged blue
By death's tender kiss
"Open your eyes, baby"

I stroked your hair;
Kissed your forehead
I loved you as if you were mine - 
Held you close
But alas, you never were
"Breathe, baby. Just breathe..."
I don't even care what this reads like, this is pure pain. I have longed for another child for quite some time, now. I miss having a baby; the way they smell, their tiny little fingers wrapped around one of yours... There are so many beautiful moments. Two nights ago I had a very vivd dream that stuck with me and that's what this is about. I dreamt I gave birth to a boy but he was stillborn. Having wanted a child for a while now, it just broke my heart.
