WoundA Poem by C. MacCormack
His searing burn curls inside
and makes itself at home Heart quickening, breath thickening, a pulsing in my womb My chest feels the pressure as he slowly seeps inside Images of tangled bodies, darkened places to hide He curls around me tighter, unaware of my pain I cannot bear the weight, I cannot hold the shame Begging for sweet mercy, he let's me slip away But forever I am wounded The damages will stay. © 2017 C.
