Waiting

~This is a scheduled post, written a couple of weeks ago~

I'm really bad at waiting sometimes.

OK, most of the time.

I'm currently waiting
for my monthly friend.
I just want to know
if I'm pregnant or not.

This wait can be so hard.
It's the unknown
and the possibilities 
that are so exciting.

Dealing with infertility is not fun.
It sucks.

It sucks 
to have that friend
show up

month
after
month
after
month.

I wonder...

What are we doing wrong?
Is there something wrong with me?

I want to be pregnant
so badly.


When I'm hoping,
I'm on the mountain top.
I'm so high,
certain that
this month
is OUR month.

When I realize that
I'm not pregnant
yet again
I'm dropped
into a pit.

Every month
it feels like
the pit gets 

deeper
and 
deeper
and
deeper.

The cycle continues...
up and down,
up and down,
up and down.  

Part of me doesn't
want to take a test.

Then I'll know
a little more
for sure.

 I don't want it
to be a no.

It could be
YES
but
what if 
it isn't?

I'll be dropped
into that pit
again...
