Here in the throes of ecstasy and grief,

I hold the child I’ve been harboring,

And shed tears, begging for relief.

Postpartum blues and colic shrieks,

The parts of parenting we mustn’t speak.

Glued down, tired, dying of thirst -

When the sink is so close,

Ah, yes, this feels just like a curse.

-FS Lewis 11/29/23

So! At the end of October I had my handsome, rainbow baby. We are so happy to have him, but the past 5 weeks have been so stressful and tiring. Just keeping in mind brighter days are coming!

The Folly of Fall

The leaves are changing

And my child grows,

The cold is now settling

And nips at my toes.

Another day’s passing,

This year’s almost gone.

My patience is thinning,

This life takes too long.

-FS Lewis 9/6/23

Who’s Who

I know I am more than a mother - or lover -

More than just a homemaker, here waiting to cater -

More than the number that punches the clock -

More than you asked for and it comes as no shock.

I am a louse, running wild through the hairs of your head,

The wet spot you cover as you lay down for bed.

A snake in the cupboard - hiding inside the pots,

A flesh-eating cancer - who’s brought you to rot.

I am a dream trapped inside bone and flesh -

This reality is trite and my fantasies never rest.

I am a settler and it’s starting to show -

How much I abhor it -

How bitterness grows.

-FS Lewis 8/1/23

Hard to believe air so sweet,

Could come from a mouth so bitter.

If Only, If Only

Were you worthwhile like the hot, summer rain,

I would rush to your arms just to relive the pain.

Were I a woman born of courage- not doubt,

I would rip you apart from the inside - out.

This body passes by so monotonously,

Yet, this heart still skips abominably.

Had you a grave,

I’d meet you o’er top.

And slip my fingers through the dirt,

To feel how you rot.

And if my dreams all ceased to be

And reality was all that stood -

For once, I’m sure I’d be happy -

For once, I’m sure my life is good.

Not poetry or a painting, but it still feels like my own piece of art. 🥹❤️🌈 can’t wait for our Halloween baby.

These once incessant obsessions -

Suddenly fruitless.

Spoiled - rotten from maturity.

Suddenly listless.

“INDIFFERENCE”

I am radio silence.

I am the beckoning whims.

I am my couch’s favorite friend.

I am everything violent.

I am the reckoning winds.

I am what my dreams defend.

I am nothing.

I am small.

I am searching for something -

Yet find nothing at all.

When things are going so well,

I find it’s better not to tell.

Said the Wolf

I’m sure you’ll see -

I mean no harm!

There is no cause

For your alarm.

My little lamb,

Why don’t you rest

Your fragile cheek

Upon my breast?

Close your eyes

And go to sleep -

As I take your soul to keep.
