A Haunting Past

"Innocent victims faced with,
A fate they don't deserve.
Brought into this life,
Only to be rejected."
`This was such a true statement, from the start the reader can infer what youre talking about - abortion. These babies that are rejected are indeed innocent victims with a fate they dont deserve.

"Guilt sweeps over women,
Who agreed to the choice.
It can't be taken back,
The past is remembered"
`Of course the choice to have an abortion causes women to be full of guilt, wishing they didnt make the choice they did; they know they cant take it back and the past and their choice will never be forgotten.

Sad write definatly.
You write very strongly on this topic as always.

5/5.
Temps. [Beyond a Poets Mind]

MaryAnne,

I have some strong thoughts on this matter too. I believe a soul choses his parents in an active way long before birth and is an active force in bringing those two souls together to suit his needs. I think the essence of the soul and the genes passed on in the body it is yet to occupy creates a surrounding in which the soul can grow spiritually.

One can only imagine the hurt it must feel when the people it has chosen refuse to have him/ her.....

Good work on the poem, if it reaches just one pregnant woman and makes her think, it will have been worth it, don't you think?

*hugs*

5/5 Ingrid
