I, Being Born a Woman and Distressed

To me this poem was about a woman and her new born child. The woman states that she was born a woman and can not help the burdens that come along with that. When she talks about the weight of another upon her breast I think she was referring to breast feeding a child. In the end it sounds like she places the child up for adoption and hopes when they meet again later in life her child will forgive her and speak to her.
