So What/ If She's Got A Child Poem by Pen Anthony

You thank the heavens
For you have found 'her'
The girl of your dreams
The one you swore
you'd take to your mother
If you found her.

She's everything
You ever wished for
More than you ever dreamt of
Yet in this midst a 'but' lingers
But she has a child you say
More of a regret than a statement

Slowly you push her away
All the good you saw in her
Her child negates
So what if she has a child
Does it suddenly make her bad
Does it make her less desirable

What's a child but an extension of her?
