A second thought
Was all that I had
Be it for
The food I eat
The roads I took
The people I met
And each month
It was just a peek-a-boo
My heart yearned
For you
My mind imagined
Symptoms
My body longed
To carry you
My voice craved
To sing for you
And each month
It was just a peek-a-boo
Mails clogged
My inbox
Telephone rang
Its maximum
Parties were
Never attended
Questions ran
Out of limit
Lullabies over radio
Pierced through me
And each month
It was just a peek-a-boo
Ob-gyn first remembered
My file no.
My name,
Face
And labelled me
"Still figuring whats wrong"
Clomid gave me
Panic attacks, palpitations
And mood swings
Pearls were all over
My ovaries...
And each month
It was just a peek-a-boo
The wait
Was tiring
I felt
Brave and broken
All at once
Every night
The pillow drenched in
Silent tears
Every morning
Puffed up eyes
Concealed the broken heart
Every day
Was a fight
I led alone
And each month
It was just a peek-a-boo
Was all that I had
Be it for
The food I eat
The roads I took
The people I met
And each month
It was just a peek-a-boo
My heart yearned
For you
My mind imagined
Symptoms
My body longed
To carry you
My voice craved
To sing for you
And each month
It was just a peek-a-boo
Mails clogged
My inbox
