The Weight of Oh

She frantically waits--
desperately trying to negate
all negative thoughts,
thinking that it would be negative,
should be negative

She steps inside
and listens to what he has to say...
One word:
          Positive

and all she can say is,
"Oh"
as her hopes all crash to zero.

    is this about being pregnant? Or finding out you have a terminal illness? I like how the reader could interpret this - so much emotion here :)
