You are a thing of wonder, both in the vein of intrigue and amusement. From the very start you set out to have a mind of your own, changing and developing at your own pace, binded to each other but at the same time occasionally estranged.
I remember way back then, when you started to grow. I was the subject of ridicule from others who presumed it was all premature on my part. Who was I to think that I needed to support you, help you evolve! I felt shame and confusion.
Even now as I sit here in between relying on you to provide nourishment for my newborn I can feel you tingle, regale and prepare. You give, you fatten, you strengthen, you comfort and you leak.
And yet you also take, you allow life to be devoured by an evil poison. A poison that threatened to take away the very person who has chaperoned our relationship from the start. You were the reason I nearly lost my mum. Mistrust between us that I hope will never reappear.
Then there is your seductive side, affirming powers of flirtation, feeling sexy, provocative and womanly. Something to thank you for and something I never want to lose.
Onwards we go on this journey together, a journey that neither of us can predict nor regulate, but one that I know will continue to test both our very existences.
