Baby Smitty's Last Week


For twelve weeks,
I carried you inside me,
nourished you, protected you.
I loved every minute of it.

But there was one thing I couldn't do:
save you

They affirm there wasn't anything
I could have done differently
My brain acknowledges, comprehends
My heart hurts, grieves

For those brief weeks,
you changed our everything
