This is a LO of me when I was a child. The Journaling is actually a poem I found online written by Lynne Montgomery called The Affair. I Just fits my situation perfectly. I was adopted from birth and I have always felt the way that she talks about in this poem. The poem reads: We weren't together very long. No sooner than I'd opened my eyes, you'd disappeared before them. It seemed magical; Faster than the speed of light, I was momentarily blinded.
I often wonder if you still think of me- of our brief love affair. How long did it last exactly-? Nine, ten months perhaps? My memory deceives me. Yet, still I think of you constantly.
On the day you said goodbye, What was my reaction, do you recall? I imagine I slept right through it. Or maybe, I was so captivated by your smile that I didn't realize, did not comprehend, that you were leaving me. If I'd been more attentive, I might have cried out and tried to stop you- Especially if I'd known it was to be forever. That is a mighty long time.
If one day, we would meet again Whether on the street, in a crowd, an alley, Would you pass me by, turning away without the slightest hint of recognition reflected in your eyes?
Would you not return the smile I extended toward you? For it is most certainly your smile as well. I would even embrace you, if you allowed it.
I know, we were involved only briefly- But, I wonder if your feelings for me have subsided. I imagine it does not matter- For I go on loving you. We are blood and so we are one. You are my mother.
