now that's reality

by questionajourney

child didn't cry
the final moment
of this dream becoming a possibility...
..until i took those scissors
and cut that rubbery thing-
the veins in my hand bulged-
for some reason
it immediately reminded me
of cutting through a whoopy cushion
i smirked and i clamped down a second time.
when the blood flew, my eyes traced it-
up her belly, to where our eyes locked.
i've never known a more sincere, admirable smile.
at that moment, i knew the dream
had slipped into reality.

What an awesome moment, captured so beautifully. Brought back memories of the first moments I had with my two precious little bundles.
