Jotting from my Journal. Day #206 of (mostly unedited) daily writing/sharing.

Note: (I will now be posting MY (MOSTLY) DAILY WRITING only on weekdays, rather than 7 days/week)

Her Return

She has always tried 
to find the portal 
out of here, 

out of the skin 
that has forever felt
too tight, too small,

tried to wiggle free 
from the wounds, 
hungrily hunting
 
for the place 
that feels like 
womb. 

But she is tired. 
So tired of hunting
out there

for what can only 
be found
in here, 

can only be found 
by turning toward 
and tending to 

the wee one who has waited 
and waited
for her return.
