You're suddenly handed a human atom bomb,
Pregnancy was hard,
The labour pain threw you off guard,
The creature you've given birth to,
Is always howling and blue,
You've suddenly become a human cow,
And you're wondering how you ever allowed,
Such a thing to happen,
The sleepless nights and days make you feel like a restless komodo dragon,
When will this tiny creature stop crying,
Despite you supplying,
An endless amount of milk and comfort,
The first three months are blurry and filled with discomfort,
The next three are triumphant,
You get the hang of motherhood somewhat,
Just when you thought you aced it all,
Comes a fever or a cough to make you fall,
Between the postpartum depression and the sleepless nights,
You realise life as you know it has reached a different height,
You watch your heart walking outside your body,
And you whisper in his ear, you can be anybody,
Mumma will always be by your side,
In this crazy ride.
