I have never been your insides

pushing to get out

In breech fortress
I was captor of organs

and you spoke to me
in soft white
flags
of breath

pure

that had never
met the breeze

let alone the wind

and how we came to know it
the bitter wind
without baby steps
and first words

.
.
.

But

I never cried to get back in

for your touch
with elegant hands
has carried me

in my insides

and I only will
when your organs fail

and you leave me

Here

as we knew it

together.

Gemma, your unique and brilliantly poetic mind works in marvellously mysterious ways!

Each poem is a trip into places I've never been! lol

Loveya!

Incredibly intimate...I almost felt like a voyeur..

  makes me happy. (not the voyeur thing)

I love how people interpret words differently, always great to read how you do.

This one was to my Mother. Pregnancy, childbirth, arrival and death. and all those bits inbetween.

I know it reads confusing. I hope this helps.

Raph, as graceful as a chubbu can be. your tone there reminded me of 'Stop fussing Gemma!' haha. er, nope.

Thankyou, for your words everyone.
