Darkest Days

Miscarriage

A seed is brought to existence
Just a small and merely little speck
Not quite much to wonder about
Not much there yet to expect

For just a short while longer
It goes completely unnoticed
As it grows and grows in size
Still learning to be a lotus

The force of its life still hangs
In the midst of a battle of balance
Because the universe only grants
Us a miracle if it's left unchallenged.

And yet, sometimes it fails
Usually when least wished for.
But when Earth's root dies,
Lest not question its sore.

No time passed could heal
Or fix the stain that stays
Just learning to live with it
Soon will clear the haze.
