my name means
absolutely nothing to you.

it's hard to see the healing
when you keep on getting hurt

root yourself further
into this earth
with each heaving breath

pump your blood

with each beat of your heart

make it yours.
don't worry,
you're not dead yet.

in those 9 months
ever sinew of your being
is theirs
and those branches
reach for the same
sky.
