Emotions

a poem by Bhavana R Nair

I felt cherished and withered all at once;
I felt overjoyed and tearful the same time.
Insane am I,
I wondered?
That was irruption of emotions,
Brought out by-
The seed of a new beginning
Nested in me.
Floating in the fluid
Trying to hold me tight,
Hung in the sac
As if in a cradle.
It shivered when I laughed
It curled up when I cried
It moved my every movement
It breathed my every breath.
It was none but the baby in the womb.
