I was an egg. Tough exterior, and complicated but soft on the inside. My chalaza You held me together. Kept my soul in place. I was albumen, yolk, air space, membranes... *You were my chalaza* and then you weren't You ripped yourself from me, broke my membranes right from the inside. My yolk crashed with nothing to hold My air followed you out I was left to suffocate in pieces of myself, damaged in a way I could never repair

Just a little raw egg
I was an egg. Tough exterior, and complicated but soft on the inside. My chalaza You held me together. Kept my soul in place. I was albumen, yolk, air space, membranes... *You were my chalaza* and then you weren't You ripped yourself from me, broke my membranes right from the inside. My yolk crashed with nothing to hold My air followed you out I was left to suffocate in pieces of myself, damaged in a way I could never repair
Experimenting with science and poetry...
