The journey

Growing inside of me like a weed grows in a garden. Wreaking havoc, taking up every resource, but wild, alive and beautiful all the same. 

Your heart is growing right now, so now I have two beating hearts. Tucked safe in my belly, making me sick, making me ache, making me cry day and night, and laugh in delirious happiness too. 

What an incredible journey has started. What adventures lie ahead. I'm scared, but who isn't? Life will happen anyway. Love will happen anyway. 

I hope I can be everything you need me to be. I know that I will try. And I hope I can still be what I need me to be, I hope you'll understand.
