You pushed me out into the world on that day. The day I was born. I blinked and looked around, everyone says. I didn't cry.

Why didn't I cry? Wasn't the womb comfortable? Weren't the fluorescent lights and cold air of the hospital terrifyingly sharp against my raw body? My amniotic eyes?

Wasn't I afraid?

You took me in your arms and looked into my face. In an instant, your fears were resolved, your emptiness gone. I gave your life meaning.

On the day I was born I promised to save you.

I don't remember doing that.
