when Asha grew
Sphere growing,
readied to become
sphere it is now,
unaware of being the largest cell
The hordes will soon surround,
each keen to enter
Many, too soon blow charges,
die
and will have never lived
except mere seconds
in a frantic race
to be the first
inside the place with promise
of another day
500 million die in trying
out on the wall
of guarding jelly shield
cut through the coat
and then you can
blow all
to break the wall
and find the purpose,
still your drive
for life
two seeds at once
break through the wall
none else able to enter
all others doomed to perish,
for you two is no guarantee
that you will be,
not yet or ever,
becoming is a violent toil
This moment be the only time
that two within another
shall be separate until
the moment’s gone
Now in another, we are two
from three, she is in each
as you each are in one
of what she has become
Together staying as one
by splitting into pieces
we can be if we last the distance,
be that in our destiny
But we are not a unit,
each is as one
forever linked,
be that in life or death we’ll know
the other is my twin
This if all goes to plan
but plan we can’t as we’re not yet
thus follow plan another had
plan or the cruelty of life
has that your organs fail
stay with it,
we’ve come through worse,
we’re not competing anymore,
we’re twins,
we both can make it through
Your heart beats weaker than before
it’s now so weak, don’t feel it near
instead feel rush go through my head
one dying risks the other too
and life of our mother
your silence tells of tired cells
without dividing all will fail
I guess that’s what is happening
right next to me
in drops of blood your only sign
our mother sees
she may not know
the sign to read,
her seeing you
as bleeding drops
without a name
my brain flooded with chemicals’
release your dying caused,
mother recovered sooner
life in the balance for a while
‘til the dice count’s high
Balance restored, your cells
break up, all washed away in time,
no sign is left you ever were
about to be, as me, becoming a new life
Part of me knows you were,
did feel you next to me
