seventeen days.



you only existed for 17 days

but you existed

for 17 days


you made me

'pregnant until proven otherwise'

for 17 days


you elevated the hCG on that test

so I know you existed

for 17 days


you existed. it doesn't matter how long.

 

you brought 17 days of

joy

and fear

and hope


and so much love.


it could have been just one

or both of you


I choose both.

 

we prayed for you

oh, how we prayed.


but then

you left us

after 17 days


you left

shades of crimson

and aches in my body


you left us with

heartache

hurt

tears

questions


and the type of pain that

will certainly last longer than

17 days


because you existed. it doesn't matter how long.
 

they say you were a non-viable pregnancy
but I believe you were just too beautiful for earth ♡
