Never To Have

@Fly10 I finally found the words for this poem. Not the one you were expecting though!

@naaviie, a tragic poem as promised!

Suitably tragic indeed 😔💔 true story?

Suitably tragic indeed 😔💔

Beautiful poem, but very tragic 😔

@naaviie thank you for the repost. Did you know deleted comments still show in my feed?!

@Nom sorry I was being nosy, thought better of it?

@Jamtots thank you. And for the repost.

@naaviie You? Nosy? Never!

@Nom mwah! So is this tragic poem about you or is it just tragic?

P.S nosy because I care. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it

@naaviie this is just tragic. Based on truth, but not necessarily my own.

My nose is satisfied... For now. 😉 a really touching write. 💚💚

A very poignant post beautifully written 💞

@sjw thank you.

@naaviie thank you and @sjw it means a lot when people are affected by what i write.

Tough stuff. That is a hard hand to be dealt. Good write.

@ckahn thank you

@milkeyedmender thank you for the repost

This reaches the climax of emotion for me. Especially the end where the ruthless reality of 'infertility' is given light to. You don't have to thank me this was worthy of the repost. (:

@milkeyedmender thanks for mentioning that. I wasn't sure whether or not to use the word 'infertility' as I thought it may jar with the rest of the poem. But, then I thought it would be far more hard hitting, so I'm glad you felt that.

Beautiful piece & an eloquent portrayal of a sensitive & heart-wrenching subject. Bravo 👏

Seen the pain of this, not mine but someone close. She actually voiced a few of these thoughts. Such a sad but very touching poem.

@Fly10 thank you. Thus was a hard piece to write, and I nearly took it from another angle.

@jojo72 I too have seen the pain. Thanks for your kind words.

@Nom I think you struck just the right balance, & considering it's not something you've written from experience, I think you've done an amazing job😌😘

@Nom @Fly10 I agree. The balance was perfect.

I have friends and family members who have struggled with infertility...some have had happy outcomes others haven't. It's heartbreaking for all involved and you wrote about it beautifully💜💜

@Fly10 @jojo72 Thank you. ☺ It means a lot that the words have hit their mark.

@misslittleDHP It's truly heartbreaking, and so sad that whilst many people think it's a 'right' to have children, for some people it just won't happen. Thank you for your comment :)

@Nom some people certainly don't deserve to have children that's for sure...it never seems fair

@misslittleDHP and that's the 'other' angle I was going to take this poem!

Beautifully captured...

@chy thank you. Not quite the same as yours.

@Nom no better! 😊

@chy aww thanks ☺
