With These Hands I

With these hands I 
have held the most precious 
human thing:

a fresh life gasping from 
warm maternal waters

a self 
realized in the cutting of
a tether

crying 
in the starkness of 
the gravity-ladden air

From the one comes 
the two 
and 
the two 
ever long to 
be one again
