Mother Once

I was a mother once
Caring
Tender
I did the unthinkable
I had it ripped out of me
Like pulling out an arrow
That had pierced my womanhood

I wanted to hold your hand
To show you the beauty of the world

My dreams of beautiful babes
Became nightmares of an angry ghost

And

I’m sorry you died
I’m sorry I let them take you
