in pain, in agony
the whole world groaned
and earth's cry was so very great
thick black clouds, all dust, no rain
stretched on like the stars
no spark nor hope for sparkle
what blinding and painful shame
yet bent and bowed in toil and sweat
came silent cries
inmost whispers through the night
from rips and tears to gut wrenching tears that covered damp face's only twilight
with furrowed brow, mouth clenched
teeth piercing even tighter fist
at heart pounding wildly
wide open cut tearing at
more of what sorrow rent
but bowed back slams down
heavy chest heaves up and
trodden head throws itself back
trodden head throws itself back
a different pleading with
writhing rhythmic louder groan
suddenly a faint cow bell chimes
to a more heavenly moan
where lungs inhaled this
pungent flesh and dank air's song
kings and angels were peeking into her womb when heaven came down, earth bowed and all the stars collapsed
Signed,
SimonaGrace
Now let the weak say I am strong!
