Are We? || Am I?

Am I hurting you? When I stop staring at your face?
When an hour goes by without a kiss?
When I think of tomorrow.
When we take longer than a minute to soothe you?
When you go from one unknown hand to another?

Do you feel ignored? When I blink.
When we pay more attention to your burp?
When our song trails off as your eyes begin to dream?

Will you remember? The women who created you?
The other world that you just left behind?
The sound of our youthful laughter?
That we haven't pinned any expectations on you?
That I feel the sadness of each passing day?
How our chests felt under your weight those minutes and hours?
That we know not what hunger is?
