dust

i taste dust

something thick

something sandy

i realize im sleeping

but im awake

so how can i be asleep

something strong pulls at me

something inside is growing

a baby

i didnt want it

but she was there

torn between a dream and life

i must do what i can

for her to survive

im drowing

i taste dust

not sure if i can move

what i wouldnt do

to save her

she deserves to be there

somewhere deep inside

i want her

what i wouldnt do to keep danger from getting her
