"A parent's heart bared, beating forever outside its chest" Debra Ginsberg

Blueberry Rain

I saw its face in the rain
Crying out for me

I felt it ripping me open
like a freshly peeled orange

You sucked the life out of me

I saw my reflection looking back at me
Drenched in blood

As I watched the milk drip down her heart shaped lips


I saw its face in the rain
Crying out for me

As I watched them pull you from me
I can only imagine the emptiness you must've felt
being torn away from the last heartbeat you'll ever hear

My womb has become a tomb

I watched as you took your first breath
I watched as you took your last

So much midnight about her, you feel like she's cursed
