MOMMY (Trigger Warning)

Abortion (From A Baby’s Point Of View)


I know that man hurt you,
Three months ago.
That I’m a surprise,
And you’re starting to show.
But please don’t keep walking,
And go through that door.
I just want to stay.
I want nothing more.
Mommy! Mommy!
You’re scaring me!
Please don’t do this!
Please hear my plea!
I know you’re just trying,
To find an escape.
From the memories of
Your horrible rape.
And this isn’t the best,
Of circumstance.
But I beg you, Mommy!
Just give me a chance!
You think I’ll only remind you,
Of that nightmarish night.
You feel alone and afraid.
You’re in fight or flight.
But I promise you now.
That I’ll give you strength.
Please don’t give up.
Don’t go to this length.
Don’t walk through that door.
Please don’t give in.
Please let me exist.
Let my life begin.
Mommy! Mommy!
You’re turning around!
You’re changing your mind!
You’re standing your ground!
You’re not giving in.
You’re not gonna run.
I thank you and promise…
I’ll be the best son.

You really go where too many are afraid to go too afraid to say the things you say. This situation is so hard to live the courage it takes. A special strength so few can muster

It is a hard place for any woman to be. I wouldn't wish this on anyone. And I would always have their back and support them, as I can only imagine how traumatic this decision would have to be for them. ❤️ I bawled my eyes out writing this piece...especially when I was reading it back to myself.
