Mothering losing a child not even born.
Still

Kick
He doesn't know
How much pain

Kick
While he grows
Turns into a boy

Kick
How to raise a man?
I can't breathe

Kick
I won't resist
I need to stroke him

Kick
Like his father
He is more than air

Still
He doesn't know
How much it hurts

Still
To feel him gone
Again leaving me

Still
But I whisper
Despite the futility

Still
I'll be here
Whenever you are

Still
When you are ready
I know you'll stay
