FIRST NIGHT HOME – After “Secret spring released“ Claude McKay

8thJan. × ’19

1.
When you cry
I cannot help but smile
knowing we will figure this out

That sounds condescending
but I know this (this being you)
is more complicated than that (that being life)

Yet suddenly everything is so simple

2.
How can it be that you just knew
how to move out of my womb
descend through
travel towards by breast
and that my body
knew you too

3.
I listen for your breathing
I cannot sleep
until you settle

This will be a forever condition
