Sixteen And Pregnant

by Kristina   Aug 9, 2006


"I can't believe you're pregnant,
You're only sixteen,
You're not ready to have a kid."
That's what everyone keeps saying.

Everyone is telling you,
To have an abortion,
They say you're too young,
And won't be able to raise it.

Yeah, you may be young,
But abortion is wrong.
You will kill your child,
Is that really what you want?

I know it's not what you want,
You want to have the baby.
And you're so confused right now,
On what to do.

Your boyfriend keeps telling you,
That he will leave you if you have it,
His mom keeps trying to talk you out of it,
But it's your decision, do what's best for you.

I think you should have it,
No matter what anyone else says,
I know you will take good care of it,
And I am here to help you, my friend.

    I really like this, it conveys the pressure that is put on girls if they get pregnant, surprisingly though i am amazed that it is only the mother that usually gets put under this torment!

    Awh, that was so sad.. The flow was good as were the descriptions.. The emotion was oozing from every line and was very inspirational..

    They say you're to young,
    ^ It should be "too" not "to"

    I know it's no what you want,
    ^ I think it should be "not" not "no"

    Great job hun! 5/5
