and denial creeps in
it has a way about it
surreptitious silent habitual
the fallback the go to the familiar
a wise mechanism protective safe
a comforting womb warm embracing
here, have a cup of tea brewed with birth water
steeped in disappointment
welcome settle in denial kisses the top of your
head sings lullabies into your ears
you sleep you float you cope once again
