-
I never asked to be born,
and I sure didn't asked to be torn,
from my mother's womb,
so nice and warm.
Fallen tears that never dry,
heartless women who never cry.
Here I stand alone,
caught between the living and those who aren't alive,
and there you are not so sure,
that the decision you make is the proper cure,
to end the possibility of a pointless existence,
criticism, hostility, and many unanswered questions,
But before you reach your conclusion,
Please remember this whatever your solution,
if done for the right reasons,
the only thing i can offer you is my forgiveness,
too much to ask a child to raise a child,
too much when you are lost and bound,
under the pressure of just being a mother,
to have a child with no guaranteed father,
But just one more favor I must ask,
Please never make this mistake twice.
I could never forgive the death of a sister or brother,
you should have learned the first time and become stronger and smarter.
So now the end has come for me,
and the future is an uncertainty.
Please keep me in your heart,
and I will always carry on.

- Title: Reflections of an Unborn Child
- Artist: Elegant Scarlet Knight
- Description: Back in November California turned down Prop 4. This proposition would require doctors to contact a parent, guardian, or close friend 48 hours before a minor could have an abortion. This brought up a lot of conflict in my Public Speaking class as half were for and half were against. During that time I wrote this and thought I would just share it. Thank you for all your comments before hand and for any constructive criticism.
