Click hereshe sleeps
less
again and again
as the months
creep past
a little
faster than they should.
she is less
of what i met
so long ago,
and these days,
she's convinced
that there is happiness
ready to be birthed
from a womb
full of self loathing.
her tummy grows
full
a ripe melon
waiting to bear its gifts
to the world.
she watches the days
watches
as she prepares meals
for the gifts
in her
that she is not ready for.
I liked it... it read more like a story than poem. Very nice :)
I love the flow of this, the evocation of feelings with just a few simple well thought out words. Well done.
As are all your works. The only thing to try...take out one of the "fulls" (probably the second one) I think the poem reads a little smoother with just one "full'.
This was well written. It simplicity allowed the emotions to flow. Overwhelming sadness. I saw this woman, keeping herself busy with all the outside things concerning giving birth.. not stopping for one minute and understanding the importance of herself being loved...
nice write..

Excellent poem, she_is_my_addiction. I can take this many ways. Flowed smoothly down the page. Good work!
