You would have to have children
To understand.
It's a phrase spoken onto me
Like footprints in sand.
It's not that I dreamt to
Be without child.
It's just time and poor judgements
Took over. I'm wild!
I'm wild and I breathe, I create
And I play.
My time to have children, it just
Slipped away.
Yes. I'd have to have children
To understand you,
But I didn't, I'm childless,
And it hurts sometimes too.
