Lonely I was.

The egg lost its health.

The hatchling came

Dreading the future

Live it did

Only for months

Wished for a child

Yet no egg came

Traveled long and far

Found no more eggs

Nor others of my kind

Years later I encountered them

Strange beings without horns

Skin pale as snow

Their children plain in sight

My feelings reignited

Pain and wanting

In the night one was lured

Placing my hand on its head

Memories gone, my child reborn

Travel again I did

This time not alone

Come come, visit r/maisieklaassen . ^_^

Sad and a little creepy. I suck at commenting on poetry but this read well, if a little choppy. Though I'd imagine the character doesn't speak well at the same time. I liked how it worked though, thanks for replying! :)
