As I layed one morning I knew it was my baby There was something wrong I hadn't told anyone How could i? I was thirteen I had to get away Walk away from home I had to truely be alone The park i used to play at As a little girl In that toilet that dirty, dark toilet In that tiny cubicle i chose, Back against the wall. Did i know what was happening? Fear embraced my body Three months early She was coming And i knew it. Too terrified to move The pain. I'll never forget. Ten tiny fingers and toes Her blood-covered face Her lifeless body Pushed into this ugly hell A puddle of my blood and urine Surrounded my exhausted body. Wrapped in my jacket Skye was laid to rest No one could know until i was ready One day. Maybe i'll be ready to let her go |

that was raw, honest, intense... I got chills. and if there is any truth to it, my heart goes out to you (or whomever it is about). Our scars are the foundation for what we have become |

I read this, this morning. I walked away from my computer. As MM said, it was very intense. I loved while hating it at the same time, as I knew by the writing it was real. I'm one who keeps things within my mind, I'll forever look up to the Skye. To get something so emotional like that into words... I'm in awe. |

K~ This is a really sad, sad event that would be difficult for one so young to 'get over' without the support of family~ You say that - "Wrapped in my jacket Skye was laid to rest No one could know until i was ready" May I ask if Skye was laid to rest in a burial ceremony, or what happened to the lifeless baby ? Were you able to let your family know ? *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Thank you for comenting on my write, I understand what you are talking about. Email me if you like I would like to hear from you. |

Very intense. Pain seemed to radiate off the page. I want to thank you for sharing this experience and I am truly and deeply sorry you had to go through this. You sound like one of the strongest people I know to be able to experience that by yourself, to continue on, and then to express it in words. I will remember your poem and your Skye. Amazing poem |

thank you everyone for the replies. Marge- no, i only wish that she was layed to rest in a ceremonial burial. But i had placed her in a dumpster with my jacket, at 13 i didn't know this was illegal, i was terrified and extremely messed up and didnt want anyone to know about her. But now the only way i feel i can visit her is in my dreams. I'll never forget her face. |
