Life is like a Pregnancy

Life is like a pregnancy

We all carry a dream to be birthed

When we carry it with great expectancy

We will realise its value and worth

Some dreams, out of fear, get aborted

Whilst others are born premature

We need others to feel supported

And to make us feel more secure

All dreams must go through a process

You may need to endure with much pain

For our dreams to be born with any success

We need to keep focused on the dream we'll gain

Most dreams are conceived out of passion

Whilst a few are handed down or forced 

Some dreams just need a longer gestation

Or a need for them to be kindly endorsed 

Some dreams you might sadly miscarry

When there a lack of a goal or a plan

For birthing a dream can feel quite scary 

Especially when others think you’re insane

Your dream may need a forceps birth

Or be cut out with the pain of a knife

But the reward of its delivery on earth  

Is the very purpose of living your life
