The Prodigal Son

forgive me,
for being the burden in your womb
and for the stretch marks around your navel.

For being the snake that sucked you dry,
The labor pains , that lay futile.
I was the prodigal son
When siblings rose high.

Pardon me, mother

I never forgave you
For shattering the silence of the womb
