I'm here

I'm here

A Poem by ♥Dancing giraffe♥

Mary

 

Amy,

 

John,

 

Joe,

 

What are their names?

 

            You’ll never know.

 

Two babies, safe in mother’s womb.

 

            But she's going to put them to their doom.

 

James?

 

Hayden?

 

Lucy?

 

Clare?

 

Forever nameless, yes they are.

 

            But it’ll leave a scar, it has so far.

           

Mother thinks she’s not to blame,

 

            But it is the other; it’s inhumane,

           

The scissors come to tear them apart,

 

They have no voice, but they have a heart,

 

He goes first, and then the other,

 

            All the while they think out, “ why mother?”

 

Not so safe in mother’s womb,

 

            Here it comes to put them in a tomb,

 

Twist and squirm to get away,

 

            Too late, the pain is on its way,

 

First the thumbs, then an ear.

 

It comes to make them disappear

 

Though, they didn’t even get the chance to learn the two words to let the outside know;

           

I’m here.

That is so sad. :( I hate the idea of abortion and hurting an innocent child (If you disagree sorry but that's my opinion on it. I understand mothers have the right to choose for the option of abortion, parenthood, or adoption, but I'm against it.)

THis had a wonderful flow and a powerful message. Excellent job. I liked how you added names in it too.

I wrote a piece like this a week or so ago titled "ME" and I got a few messages in my inbox... not so nice ones :(

I do support a person's right to choose... I just wish that everyone to choose life :)

My review on your piece:
Thank you for being brave enough to even post this. I love the arrangement of this piece... I like the list of names that the children will never have. The flow of your poem is nice and relaxed. It was easy to read a piece about something so cruel. This is a fantastic piece of poetry and I am very honored to have read it. Thanks for sharing.

The point of this is so clear, and this is amazingly well written. All children have a right to live a life, despite all this. You got your point across beautifully, well done.
