The mystery of my history

began long before

the day my father revealed:

I was adopted at birth.

Long before I wondered

the connection to my worth.

He said there is no shame.

He was blessed for me to take his name.

My birth mother:

She was more than a vessel.

More than a womb

where I swam

in a sea of misconception.

She gave my heart its first beat.

Poured her blood into my body.

She is my history.

Knows the answers to my ancestry.

What time was I born? How long the labour?

Who cut the umbilical cord?

Or are we still attached?
