 If it cries, does that make it woman?



Huddled in the corner,
don't you know
that in pain you find
the only truth,
little girl?
He makes the tears
in factories where he reigns
king of heartache
king of the broken;
you are but a shipment
of splinters
and your uncaged breasts
scare him--

(can't
let
them
win)

your breath fogs the air
around you-
you try to disappear,
girl with the fairy
tattooed upon
your heart.
I can watch you curl,
over the mist
of watered miles
and my soul starves
in the brutality
that broke into your safe.

I could hand you tissues
but they never
clean up the blood.
Spilled from the rips,
the goddamn hole
that gapes
opened mouthed
with stillborn babies--

You, who wanted
to split
apart
the world
with
just the
(echo)
of your voice

and even if all
the bent kneed women
that came before
could cry those tears
beside you, would it
create anything more
than just an orchastrated
madness of bloody
wombs, heaving chests?

The void is universal,
my darling one-
and from within it
you shall
come bursting out
banshee voiced
and the
strength of
a million Liliths
riding your soul.

(Rest, dear child-
the hurt shall fold
neatly
in a corner pocket--
someday)

 

 

Written for me by Meli, it means the world to me.

                       
 you trip me out ...
