gazing on your reflections.
This is what you left me to become.
I cut off the scream
so you don't hear it.
My fists balled against
my eyes.
I see into the future
hers will be loved.
Fine perfection,
slim curves
and wispy hair.
I cried for children
we wouldn't make
Deep down in MY womb.
I saw that light in her eyes
and inside,
I broke.
You made her look beautiful.
Cause and effect.
I watched as a
drop of water slid
down the window,
My finger pressed
to the glass.
