Unborn Daughter
Be her star
in the night sky
that stays with her
until the light of dawn
appear above the horizon,
and cuddle her
in her sleep
for your starlight
is her solace
and hope.
Caress her head
to silence the wild
uproar of monsters
that constantly
transpires in it,
and rub her back
gently
and lovingly
to suppress her burdens
from devastating her.
Say you are proud of her
for staying as firm
as a boulder
that stands still
when big ocean waves
are crashing on it,
for it is the same way
she responds
to anything strong
that tries to crush her.
She may become like you,
or the girl you used to be.
You survived, and still surviving
but her― she may surrender
to the shadows
and give up one day.
So darling,
help her pull through.
Try to be there
at all cost.
