Silent Knowing

You emerged from the dark well,
startled by the lights,
looking at the sights
of different colored faces
touching, pulling, yanking you out of me.
For 3 days you played hide & seek,
dropping deep into the abyss
then hitting your head against the birth canal only to retreat back inside,
where it was warm,
where it was wet,
