Your face like a faded watermark
Settling itself in my head
flickers of old memories appearing
one by one.
As I lay myself down in bed
Dreams floating calmly one by one
My unborn child kicking at my tummy
The man I love laying asleep by my side
and that scary thought of becoming a
mummy
The clocks tick louder as I try to sleep
The thought of you drifting away
The walls turning into nothing
There I finally lay still waiting for day

very touching and emotional write. Those quiet moments laying awake, with thoughts dispersed in our heads. Have a child stiring inside of you would bring all kinds of emotional thoughts. You'll be a great mom. Keep writing and thanks for sharing.
