Heart to the heart
By Wolfspirit

I came with all your hopes I came to share all my love I came knowing that you have welcomend me Your hopes, as the world awaited my arrival From the day you created me I was special Although I was second in line, you loved me as ones own I felt every Heartbeat, and the love kept me warm I heard your thoughts I know how much you wanted me I know how much you prayed with joy. I know I was one of a Kind But all I could do was bring you pain A child that was to be full of joy You gave birth to me and I heard your joy Yet I was not ready for this world I gasped my last breath in your arms Your tears shared my grief It is here I leave my love And a gift A child so precious Hold her in your arms For I'm now with you

This is very sad, but I'm not sure if both mother and child died or just the baby. You suggest in the last sentence that mother died too. 
 
I'm no judge but to me this is more prose than poetry.

The GW editor seems to have stripped all the line breaks from this. You might want to check it yourself. I'l come back when it's sorted.

Very unusual theme, which will doubtless bring forth a fair degree of comment if you are able to put this into its (presumably) original line format. 
Try it again, or post something shorter so that you understand how the system works; for it IS a bit puzzling when you first arrive.
