| I helped my little sister write this one for a Pro-Life contest. Well...ok...so I mostly wrote it...but I did have a little help from her! :) (Just so you all know...I did not have an abortion...it's just a poem!) "Mommy" ~Sara Montey~ Mommy, I still love you You kept me safe and warm. I thought nothing could hurt me there Or bring me any harm. But then one day a big machine Made me start to cry I was scared as it began To tear my limbs apart. Why didn't you stop it, Mommy? Was it hurting you, as well? This machine was evil, Mommy It inflicted so much pain. It took me away from you Where I thought I was safe. There must have been a good reason For what happened to me. Maybe you weren't ready To take care of me, Mommy. Maybe you were scared Or couldn't afford me. Maybe your boyfriend made you do this, Or maybe you were raped. Maybe you would have been embarrassed To have a bigger belly for a while. I'm sorry, Mommy, If it was something I did. I would've made it up to you, Mommy. I would have made you so proud! Maybe I could have become A lawyer or a doctor. I could have taken care of you, Mommy. If only you gave me a chance. Maybe you just didn't want me. Maybe you were ashamed of me. Couldn't you have given me away To someone who could have kept me safe and warm Just like you used to... I don't know why you let this Happen to me, Mommy. I was just your baby And I thought maybe... You could love me. |
