All That is Left

All that is left is a white cane chair
and a bear
that belongs to you

My Jessica full of broken pieces
pieces that can't be replaced
fixed or found.

Did they think when they ripped
you from my arms
did they think I had no feelings
That I was a Non Person,

No they didn't think
they didn't care
now all that is left
Is a white cane chair
and on it sits a bear
That belongs to you
My Jessica

But I will wait until the day I die
for your return
And I will hold out my broken arms
the arms from which you were torn
And I will ache forever
from the womb which
you were born.

Ayesha. A (A Birthmother)
