Challenge of the Week CXCIX
From being encased by uterine fluid to the bright light of day one: Write a poem about being born.
11:59 PM
I am a miracle,
of my mother's love
and of my father's dreams.
I broke through the void,
devoid of meaning,
to an infinity
of time.
I came in screaming,
to seek my destination
after passing
through womb,
pierced by light.
I give my all,
to see
that we are
many,
trying to live up
to our destiny above us.
I finally open
into my own,
a reflection on the
mirrors,
beholden
to
a moment's kiss.
