how hard it would be
to have children.
No not the discomfort of pregnancy
nor the pain of childbirth.
The sleepless nights
or chasing after toddlers
seems a dream.
Worries over friends, or school,
or teenage angsts
are but a brief gasp in memory.
No, now is the hard part.
A quarter century of life.
Too far away
no longer part of
my everyday laughter life
but grown and gone.
No one ever told me
how hard it would be
to have children.
