Walking silently to the river of thought <br />carrying a mystic child <br />The expecting mother <br />Swaggers with intense confusion <br /> <br />Who will my son be? <br />Who will he love? <br />Who will love him? <br />Love him like I do <br /> <br />Will he be healthy? <br />Will he be smart? <br />Will he allow me <br />Access into his heart? <br /> <br />A mothers touch is <br />what I'll give him <br />But does he want it? <br />Will he even feel it? <br /> <br />Can I warm him on <br />A cold winter's night <br />Will he hear me <br />When I call to him? <br /> <br />Will he see me <br />when I show him? <br />My son, the one I <br />Hold in my womb <br /> <br />My son whose <br />Father's been doomed <br />My son pathaetes <br />For whom I love <br /> <br />My son pathaetes <br />What holds for him?<br /><br />Darryl (Daristotle) McMillan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-unborne-soldier/
