Melancholic, forlorn
I mourn all alone,
Secured, in her womb.
I hoped, to be born;
Tomorrow
When the doctor comes,
To do the MTP as planned,
I have no choice to live.
Resisting, the powerful man,
Before, the break of dawn,
I will be, forever gone.
I wail, "Mom please, don't,"
Feeble are my cries
Alone
No one to hear, no one to care;
Foetus, has no voice to air!
This poem touched me. So many people using abortion like it's a form of birth control Very sad situation. In the words of Gwendolyn Brooks:
"Abortions will not let you forget.
You remember the children you got that you did not get"
Excellent. I hear the women here complaining that if we ban abortion it impedes their right of choice over their bodies. I say you have a choice, and that is to not have sex. You play you pay. Only a small number use abortion because of medical reasons or to terminate rape. Abortion should not be allowed as a convenient contraceptive.
Great write.
Hugs and Peace
