Madeline (Hun... please, don't read this one)

 
   
Positive sign  
double line.  
Spotting?  
Hesitant assurance  
certain expectancy  
birth of our false hope.  
   
   
Natural conception  
instant connection  
umbilical elation  
feeds our disbelief.  
   
   
Gut feeling…  
internal insight    
a mother’s intuition  
not all is right.  
   
   
Weekly testing  
waiting daily  
sleepless hours    
holding, comforting  
life vessel caress.  
Godless  
breathless  
praying for a miracle.  
   
   
Second trimester
torturous  
questioned daily  
unknown  
uncertainties.  
   
   
Little room  
to hide.  
Small belly  
cold smear  
sonic eye looks inside.  
Black and white  
static  
ultra-soundless  
stillness  
beat-less.  
   
   
If only I could find the words  
to sooth  
the silence.  
   
   
Spotting  
heavy bleeding  
porcelain cradle  
vacant womb  
her  
still life.  
   
   
Madeline.
