"FOUND" By Veronica Brannon. Coming soon!!
As I sit
here contemplating my baby girl sleeping peacefully, without a care in the
world, I think… how can anyone let go of such beauty? How could I ever say no
to that little piece of myself? I gave life to her and there’s no way I could
ever give her away, much less abandon her, but…
But a mind can change on
a dime, and it did…
A mixture of hazy astray
desperation was drawn on the face staring at the sweet innocence of the baby
sleeping peacefully in a basket. Still under the heavy influence of the dope she
had consumed not too long ago, and to a point unaware of what she was doing and
what she just, a day before thought would never do, she abandoned her baby. She
left her there at the mercy of no one, but in the back of her mind she held hope
that a good soul would find her. She kissed the baby’s forehead one last time.
“I love you, my baby…”
then she walked away.
