Love Like Never Before Poem by Yana Thompson

I've seen the good and the bad,
things that made me laugh and things that made me sad.

I've been hurt by those I loved and loved by those I've hurt,
Of all the thing that I've seen and done this was the worst.

She grew within me fluttering with life,
and as I felt her move I laughed and cried.

I knew I could'nt keep her right from the start,
so I prepared myself for the day we would soon part.

I bore her into this world shaking with pain,
because when I first held her I fell in love again.

I had nothing to give her though I wished to so much,
I had nothing to show her except for my love.

So I gave her to those could give her what I could not,
and I kissed her goodbye the tears on my face burning hot.

I did'nt look back as I walked out the door,
then I stumbled with pain as deep in my chest my heart tore.

I don't regret that day and I rejoyce to my core,
the day I gave her away was the day I sowed her a love I never
showed anyone before.
