Motherhood Poems
Doublethink
by Ella Tudor
I walked, and I walked,
not knowing where to go.
I walked and walked
as I grew.
I never truly knew
the pain held inside—
little did I know
it is where the depths of motherhood hide.
I waited by the road
for some kind of sign.

The Tainted Miracle
by Kelly Meddles
A tainted miracle came my way;
I never thought I'd see the day.
A baby lies in my womb;
A little flower soon to bloom.
I'll love them how you never could;
Something you never understood.
I'd beg you to love me, hold me close;

Forgive Me
by Kate Wallace
So very often you will see me fail,
and mostly I don't care.
For failing is just part of life,
its something all humans share.
I don't care if I'm not the best
at many of the things I do,
but every inch of my being is telling me
I must be the best mother, for you.

My Boy
by May Golda
I was sent to the edge of that cliff, and there I sat.
There I stared into the void, the nothingness.
I felt the rock from beneath sifting...crumbling.
Stillness
I could not find the strength, as the earth beneath disinterested.

Words to my mother
by Olivia Inafa
A special day in which you gave life
That breath accompanied with the first cry
Went through tremendous pain
Which were not in vain
The love and care which you have shown
Second to that which is above
The rooftop and walls bear witness to your prayer
As you fervently demanded our blessings from the maker
Your strength leaves me in awe
Structured our life with the holy law

She died
by Dina Shehada
Everything about her is so special
You touch her hand and feel it's cold
As if it was a metal
Asking the lord
Please make her feel better
Those stunning eyes
Their gorgeous color
Look at them and feel her magic power
Let your hand run through her hair
You will know how it feels to touch the rainbow rain
