Motherless Womb

The depression is taking over my heart,
 the pain breaking my soul down like crumbles of sand
 how do I fight the pain of a motherless womb?
 the joy of motherhood is slipping from my fingers, 
 so far that I can’t grab it 
 the pain is eating me
 alive
 I fake a smile 
 and I fake the joy
 that people think they see
 but inside I’m not the same fighting all of the pain. 
 people say your the cause
 and you feel like your less than a woman,
 a broken woman,
 stuck in a never ending nightmare
 trying to fight your way out
 I’m drowning in the pain, 
the pain of a motherless womb.
