How I longed for you!

Longing, yearning, searing pain
emptiness, crying but its all in vain.

Sadness, fear, excitement in all your eyes
but some just numb after so many tries.

Blood tests, injections, each and every day
Please let it be worth it is all I pray.

I'm ready today, the time has come
9 they say no need to look glum

Waiting,waiting for the phone to ring
To hear the news that call may bring.

Lying down with cells on a screen
seeing a flash and then feeling serene.

Months go by living in dread but as the time draws near
I'm losing my fear.

Pulling, pushing, then just one more try
and then I hear your glorious cry.

Smiling, happy, beautiful boy
I've waited so long to feel this joy.

Kissing, smelling, cuddling you
I still can't believe you are here it is true.

I'm a mummy and someday I could be a grandma too
and I will tell your children how I longed for you.
