| It's early yet, the month is one; Although you can't see me, I've just begun. So small, no need to hide; Nothing big, a small seed inside. Four weeks later, the month is two; I'm still small, but a part of you. Mommy, you'll love me; Just wait and see, you'll be so proud of me. Time is passing, The month is three; Now I'm someone you could see. My hair is brown, my eyes are green; Mommy, I know you will love it to have me around. It's later now, the month is four; It's over, I can't grow anymore. Even if it may not be right; Mommy, You killed me, just last night. It's over now, the month is five; Mommy killed me, I'm no longer alive. Abortion is the name they gave it; It takes one's life before they live it. I wanted to be born, the month is six; It's already come, it can't be fixed. Mommy didn't love me, threw me away; She will regret this, in her memory I'll stay. I have a new home, the month is seven; Mommy killed me, I'm now im heaven. Once I was beautiful, now I'm gone; Only my memory lingers on. If I were around, the month would be eight; She had to have loved me, but now it's too late. I was murdered by my mommy's own hand; I must be too young, I think I will never understand. This sonnet is over, the month is nine; if only alive, I would be fine. Although I'm in heaven, I still must cry; "Oh mommy, why did I have to die?" |
