I didn't know you

But I named you

I named you the day I lost you

I've never told anyone

I never knew your gender

I never heard your heartbeat

I never knew you existed

Until the moment I lost you

I wonder who you would be

Who would you look like

What would you act like

I always wonder

Some days are really hard

The anniversary of the day I lost you

Mother's day

And days I am surrounded by mothers with their babies

I can usually hold myself together

But I can't stop my heart from breaking

It's as if I relive that moment every time

And I can't help but feel guilty

So I've decided to tell the world

Of your beautiful name

Taylen

You are my angel
