I Don'T Remember Poem by kp. shashidharan

I don’t remember
How as an embryo
I coexisted in the womb
Of my mother!

I don’t remember
How I lived in her
Like a parasite sharing
Her Oxygen, nutrients, blood!

Soaked in her body fluid
Floated in her life giving nectar
Rocking in comfort
Kicking her in joy
Dreaming in bliss!

I don’t remember
How I swam out of her womb
One day screaming
Pushing and tearing her apart!
