..................
Dead for the past one year
Lived life for no reason
But lived anyway…
Had lost twin desires of my womb
Now am nurturing the pain of loss.
Time heals…
Ya, it does erase all visible signs
So that the world feels
There’s no more pain.
Pain has worked its way up
Now it’s a forever ache
Maybe for life…
Maybe some tiny kicks
On my breast with release the lump
Swallowed since long
Twinkling eyes, tottering toes, tantrum tales
Will bring some light
Will sound a new ring
Will bring back that impatience
Which I long for
Consoled the punctured womb
With a soul - severed umbilical chord
A bond transcending throes
Hope to join the umbilical chord
After birth…
Decided to live life from the first death anniversary.
