Dedicated to those who have lost babies

————

You grew inside me

Until you didn’t.

You moved and kicked

Until you didn’t.

You entered life

With ended life.

In stillness.

I held you

Until I didn’t.

They said let go.

Body empty. Arms empty.

At night I hear a cry.

I move inside an empty room.

I kick the wall.

I am here. Waiting.

You move inside me.

I feel you kick.

You are there. Waiting.

In the morning

In the stillness

They say let go.

Body empty. Arms empty.
