It’s so warm and comfortable here, Mommy
I don’t want to ever leave
I’m in a cradle of amniotic fluid
Rocking, rocking as you move about
I hear your voice, your laughter, your sighs
I feel your heart beating
I’m so content to be with you, Mommy
Take care of me, protect me, love me, and nurture me
I love you Mommy. I love you
The time has come; I have to leave
You push me out with violent jerks and loud screams
I am thrust into a harsh world
The air pushes its way into my lungs and makes me scream
But I still have you, Mommy
You hold me and caress me
I lie against your soft, warm breast
And suck and suck the warm, sweet milk
It’s so warm and comfortable here, Mommy
I don’t want to ever leave
I hear your voice, your laughter, your sighs
I smell your smell
I feel your heart beating
I’m so content to be with you, Mommy
Take care of me, protect me, love me, and nurture me
I love you, Mommy. I love you.
The time has come; I have to leave
You take me away from your soft, warm breast and wean me
I have to drink from a cold, hard cup
I can’t have your warm, sweet milk anymore
But I still have you, Mommy
You hold me and caress me
I lie against you and hug you
I need you, Mommy
Don’t make me grow up too fast
It’s so warm and comfortable here, Mommy
I don’t want to ever leave
I hear your voice, your laughter, your sighs
I feel your heart beating
I’m so content to be with you, Mommy
Take care of me, protect me, love me, and nurture me
I love you, Mommy. I love you
The time has come; I have to leave
I’m too old to be cuddled by Mommy any longer
I go forth into the world step by step
The world out there is harsh
I found that out with my first breath
I love you, Mommy. I love you
