Striking like lightning Powering like fire My body screeches for help What is it yelling for? Advil? Aleve? It doesn’t work I hope the pain will be washed away like sand washes from my feet into the ocean Holding on to dear life Speechless Three hours laters later It’s like i’m resurrected That pain, the screaming of my weary body. I forgot that I was having a child I’m not ready for this Or maybe I am, when I awake I gazed at a beautiful princess I am reminded of growing up and a childhood of so much fun. I am relieved.
