Surrogate for Stillborn

A surrogate for stillborn love,
I grow heavy and know
their secrets sprouted stones
and tumors. They strap me down,
smiling, they've got what they want
and it is always inside of me.
I can't even cut it open, it belongs
to them and they want it there,
swelling and surviving, heartlessly.
