My love for you, child,
is boundless as the sea...
I knew I was pregnant,
My body always in pain...
Explosive eruptions ignite mass death,
ending lives and traumatizing nations...
Across the wild velvet moor,
when delicate bluebells yawn...
I struggle to put my heart under arrest;
cuffed; restrained from loving you...
I want to make things better
But I do not know how...
Who is holding me to ransom?
Who is raping my soul...
Fixated thoughts dilute with time
as patience strengthens...
To the one who finds joy
as my shuddering breath threatens...
Singing pain felt inside
Overbearing emotions untold...
I wear this
fake smile...
Four tears, I counted, that strolled down my face
Arguments turn into memories that I can't erase...
