Coco Butter

My hands were dry
and I wanted lotion. 
I didn't even realize what I was reaching for 
until a glob of it was pumped out into my hand 

The smell overwhelmed my nostrils
And the tears took over my eyes and face. 

A glob of lotion put me in that place.
Where I was newly pregnant terrified of getting stretch marks and rubbing that shit on me any chance I got. 

I was so neauseous and every smell got to me but no matter how sick I was I would put that lotion on. 

I slowly started using more and more of it as he grew, making sure every bit of my belly was covered....
just as I did that morning....

The last morning I used that lotion.

That smell used to make me happy. 

But now I feel as if my skin is burning and want nothing more then to shower and get it off of me.
