“The Force I never wanted to feel”
You never know when it’s coming, the pain.
It catches you off guard
Like a sudden car crash
Or a drop in a roller coaster.
You get whiplash from the force its projecting
And you cant help but scream at the top of your lungs.
I was younger when i lost my baby, feels like it happened just yesterday.
The pain still radiates, from my body and arms still long to be not empty.
I have held back my feelings for the people around me.
Months later, after my twenty first birthday
The only time i genuinely let them out was when i was with my mom On christmas eve.
It was a holiday.
My mom only said one thing and the pain rose from my body, collided with the false happines I was projecting and it created a tornado of pain.
It then hit me, the sudden car crash and drop in a rollercoaster
The force I never wanted to feel.
She said
“No pain hurts worse, then being a mother with empty arms.”
