A life within, a life unsure,

Couch surfing, pregnant, and feeling pure despair.

A decision looms, a heart must break,

A choice between pain and a chance to make.

She thinks of him, his future bright,

A life of love, of laughter, of light.

But she's struggling, can't provide,

A stable home, a future to thrive.

Tears fall hard, as she makes the call,

To give him up, to let him stand tall.

Another family, with love and means,

Will give him life, and all his dreams.

She holds him close, one last sweet kiss,

A goodbye whispered, a heart's abyss.

A sacrifice made, a mother's love,

A choice that echoes, sent from above.

I'm trying hard,to find my way,

To better myself, come what may.

So I can be there, in your life,

A part of the journey, a loving strife.

Thanks to the family you now know and the man i call mine,

I'm finding strength, and a love that grows.

My heart remains, with the child I've lost,

A love that stays, no matter the cost.
