Poetry: On abortion

It didn't hurt then
but now I feel the pain.
They took you from me
and nobody was to gain.
I told them to do it,
not only they are to blame.
If only things could be undone,
if so I would have you to claim.

I didn't think it would hurt
this much; this long.
I thought I would feel better
once you were gone.
The crying of a newborn baby
to me would sound like a song.
I realize now that what I did
was not only unfair to you, but wrong.

The feeling of you kicking
inside of me
would fill my heart
with such glee,
and I should've realized then
that you would be
a precious little baby
I could hold and see.
