Borgiana

You seemed to love me enough
to carry me to term
to even allow me a glimpse of the sky
but not enough to keep me?
Did he make you give me away
or did he even know of me tucked
right below your heart?
Was it too much to see my brown eyes
and think of his?
Was it easy to sign the
"Certificate of Abandonment"
or did you choke on your tears?
I desire to know
what really happened
the day I left your arms
and I want to know of him
who helped create me...
Do I look like you?
Do you love to be touched as I do now,
or does it make you tremble?
Are you afraid of the dark?
I am, but I know Who to call upon
when I am afraid.
I struggle to tell our story-
there are so many questions
and no one can give me an answer
Do you remember my birthday?
All I have of you
is
only
your
name.
