Conceiving you felt like death. Slowly drowning in despair. The pressure rising to my head. Only in my womb for a month, Longing for a mother That wasn’t actually there I heard you crying in anguish It mocked me continuously, You felt contaminating. I sank to the bottom, Laying there, lungs filled, bursting in pain A dark presence swept over me. There are a million ways to bleed and You were gutted out whole No sea water but my own tears. She took you from me. Or Did I take you away from myself?   Regret and Heartache Paralyzed me

Gaining and losing
Conceiving you felt like death. Slowly drowning in despair. The pressure rising to my head. Only in my womb for a month, Longing for a mother That wasn’t actually there I heard you crying in anguish It mocked me continuously, You felt contaminating. I sank to the bottom, Laying there, lungs filled, bursting in pain A dark presence swept over me. There are a million ways to bleed and You were gutted out whole No sea water but my own tears. She took you from me. Or Did I take you away from myself?   Regret and Heartache Paralyzed me
