Could-haves

Generic poetry
And a Father who left me

Generic photography
And a Mother who I believe loves me

But how can you die, before being born? 
Sometimes I imagine myself trying to commit suicide in the womb,
On the 8th month my Mother was pregnant with me,
The man who never sat me on his shoulders,
Never made my family breakfast,
And never brought me in to 'Bring your Child to Work Day',
walked out of the door and carried with him all the could-haves of my childhood.
