Blood Stains on the Floor

March 3, 2016 /

A son is born, the family rejoices

There are blood stains on the floor, but the blood ain’t fresh

It also does not belong to the boy or his mother

As the son grows, he crawls on the red marks, accepting them as a part of his life

When he grows up to be a man, he marks his own floor with blood of beautiful angels before he finally gets a son

My heart cries, not because I was once a girl child, but because I am human with a heart
