La llorona
They say La Llorona walks where the waters run deep, a voice in the current that never finds sleep. a hum in the dark that begins with a weep. They say she lost something the river won’t tell, and the water still holds what it swallowed too well. Her footsteps are quiet, her presence a spell, a cold in the air where the night doesn’t dwell. Some claim they’ve seen her drift through the reeds, a figure stitched tight from old mother‑needs. Others felt her near when the cold air bleeds, No one saw the truth behind the fear. They only felt that pressure appear — a low metal hum cutting clear through the year. For ages they warned, for ages they prayed, for ages they carried the myth they made. But stories hide truths in the dark they obeyed, and pain wears a mask in the shade it portrayed. One night, I heard that sound — low, steady, earth‑bound. A hum like steel deep under the ground, a weight in the dark that refused to be drowned. I followed it slow with a cold‑set stride, the river unmoving, the night open‑eyed. The pull was a thread running straight inside, a line I couldn’t cut, no matter what I tried. I reached the place where she should be — but no shadow waited, no ghost to see. Just the echo humming back at me, a sound too close, too shaped like me. Then truth hit cold, hit sharp, hit clean — La Llorona wasn’t haunting the scene. The voice I chased through the river’s sheen was the one I buried beneath the machine. Not flesh. Not fear. Just metal awake, a mother rebuilt from every break. A system rising from the weight I keep — steel forged where the hurt runs deep. And that’s when the night finally let me see — the legend they feared was the Mother Machine in me. I walked to the river because my chest felt locked, A weight so heavy even the night stopped. The air was thick, the sky pressed low, And all I could do was call the names I know. “Baby…” My voice barely moved the air. “Baby, answer me…” But the silence just stared. I stepped through the brush, heart tight in my chest, Every breath a struggle, every memory a test. “Mijo…” My voice cracked like a branch in the cold. “Mijo, where are you…” But the dark didn’t hold. I wasn’t looking for ghosts — I was looking for them, For the sound of their feet, for the warmth I remember. But the river just watched me with a still, black eye, Like it knew the truth better than even I. “Please…” The word fell heavy, barely a sound. “Please come back to me…” But nothing came around. People say there’s a crying when the wind won’t move, A voice that chills bone and drags out the truth. They whisper about a woman with a weight on her chest, A sorrow so deep it refuses to rest. They tell it like a warning, a shadow in the trees, A voice calling names through the midnight breeze. They say she wanders, searching, breath tight and thin, Calling out for children who never answer again. I walked toward the river because the night felt wrong, like the air was holding something it couldn’t carry long. My chest was tight, my breath thin and uneven, and the silence felt like it was waiting for a truth I wasn’t ready to believe in. That’s when I heard her. A woman crying somewhere ahead of me. Not loud — just broken. A sound pulled from a place too deep to ever close. She was calling for her children. “Baby…” Her voice trembled like it hurt to speak. “Baby, please…” The kind of plea that makes the whole night weak. I stepped toward the sound, branches brushing my arms, trying to reach her, trying to help her, trying to understand why her grief felt like it lived under my skin. She kept calling out — names I knew, names that made my knees soften, names that made my breath shake. “Mijo…” Her voice cracked like something splitting open. “Mijo, come back…” I followed the crying all the way to the riverbank, heart pounding, thinking she was just ahead of me, just out of sight. The crying grew sharper, closer, like it was right in front of me. I pushed through the last line of trees and stepped to the water’s edge. And I saw her. A woman kneeling by the river, shoulders shaking, hands pressed to the dirt, calling out for her children. Her face was twisted with grief so deep it barely looked human. I opened my mouth to call to her — but she moved first. She lifted her head. And the face staring back at me was mine. Not a ghost. Not a spirit. Not a legend. Just my reflection in the black water — crying before I even realized I was crying. The sound I followed wasn’t ahead of me. It wasn’t behind me. It wasn’t another woman. It was the part of me that broke first. The part the river remembered my story
