Megan Fox writes she wanted to hold her unborn child's hand
In her poem collection, Fox mentions an ultrasound of a baby girl at 10 weeks and wrote, "maybe if you hadn't... maybe if I had..."
"I want to hold your hand / hear your laugh," and later, "but now / I have to say / goodbye," she continued elsewhere.
Explaining her imagination of holding the baby "as they rip you from my insides," she wrote, I will pay any price, Tell me please / what is the ransom / for her soul?"

On Tuesday, November 7, Fox said in an interview with 'Good Morning America' that she "had never been through anything like that before in my life."
She said, "I have three kids, so it was very difficult for both of us. And it sent us on a very wild journey together and separately, and together and apart, and together and apart, and together and apart, trying to navigate, 'What does this mean? Why did this happen?'"
Machine Gun Kelly once dedicated a song performance to his unborn child
Machine Gun Kelly who got engaged to Fox in 2022 dedicated the song 'Twin Flame' to his fiance at the Billboard Music Awards performance in May 2022. "And this is for our unborn child," he said at the time.

The 'Rogue' actor further explored themes of toxic relationships in her work.
In a previous statement, Fox said that the poetry was her "attempt to excise the illness that had taken root in me because of my silence."
"I’ve spent my entire life keeping the secrets of men, my body aches from carrying the weight of their sins," said the actress.

"My freedom lives in these pages, and I hope that my words can inspire others to take back their happiness and their identity by using their voice to illuminate what’s been buried, but not forgotten, in the darkness," she continued.
Megan Fox says her poetry is 'something women can relate to'
Speaking to People, she said that writing the collection and its subjects "comes from a lot of places."
"Some of it is literal, while other parts are allegorical. Some poems contain a Grimm’s-fairy-tale-type element, and others serve the same purpose as memes in online culture," she explained.
"All of it is something women can relate to," Fox added.
Fox shares three children, Journey River, seven, Bodhi Ransom, nine, and Noah Shannon with her ex Brian Austin Green, 50.
