I was braver than brave for you,

Carried you within myself, in my arms,

And in my heart forever too.

I was more scared than scared with you,

Wore an open wound for the chance to see your ocean eyes,

But that's just something small we mothers do.

I was happier than happy thanks to you,

My entire world weighing only 6lb 10oz,

Slightly heavier than your wonderful sisters 6lb 2oz.

I was more driven than determined for you,

I gave every last part of me,

But every part was worth it just to share a moment with you.

I was more in love than love when looking at you,

Gazing at my mirrored smile, from ear to ear,

The amazing thing is I know you felt it too.

I am more proud than a proud woman could be,

Because I shared something with you that's so special to me,

I held an angel and he held my heart,

How much luckier could I have ever been?
