Analysis of Hysterectomy
Brenda Anderson 1977 (Nc)
Im lying on a cold gurney.
Im headed for an uncharted journey.
Its just organs you may say.
However I felt my babies kick everyday.
It was my babies first home.
In there they kicked and roamed.
Im a grandma hard to believe.
A beautiful grandson I did receive.
My youth is going going gone.
I feel tired dusk to dawn.
I am being torn apart.
They might as well take my heart.
The pain is both emotionsl and physical totment.
Some pain lies dormant.
All and all I will see.
What post hysterectomy has in store for me.
