Poem: Before I was a Mom Source: Amy Before I was a Mom I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn\'t want to put him down I never felt my heart break into a million pieces When I couldn\'t stop the hurt I never knew that something so small Could affect my life so much I never knew that I could love someone so much I never knew I would love being a Mom Before I was a Mom I didn\'t know the feeling of Having my heart outside my body I didn\'t know how special it could feel To feed a hungry baby I didn\'t know that bond Between a mother and her child I didn\'t know that something so small Could make me feel so important and happy Before I was a Mom I had never gotten up in the middle of the night Every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay I had never known the warmth The joy The love The heartache The wonderment And the satisfaction of being a Mom I didn\'t know I was capable of feeling so much Before I was a Mom Rebecca Lin 2009 Winter In USA
