Im listening closely for vibrations from the outside world.
Reaching and kicking I press my small growing body closer.
I can feel a warm soul and sensitive hand protecting me.
My heart is aching in anticipation to exit my surroundings.
Voices whisper around me with joyful discussions of What ifs?
My curious mind wonders, who will I meet on the outside?
What will they look like? Will they have eyes like me?
When will my time come to see their faces, and theirs mine?
As the days and months go by, the wait becomes unbearable.
There is not much room in here anymore, as I give a resounding kick.
I wait in anticipation to take my turn and enjoy my new life.
Until then I listen closely for their voices filled with laughter and love.
