Maybe it's Time

the second baby, awaits its birth
silently a little hope, it sits cradled

the white shell of its existence
a pearl glowing, and yet

it's deep inside her heart
she no longer wants to search

no longer wants to give birth

the second or third or fourth,
await their turn to be born

but this woman turned girl
has no strength to breed, no more.

surrounded by light she surrenders
opening her palms she wants to hold

all and nothing any/forever-more.
