Regretful Abortion

by Emily   May 21, 2007


Two months old to the day,
I let your life slip away.

I felt you growing inside of me,
I imagined and wondered what you would be.

Your body so tiny, your touch so warm,
Your life not taken to its full form.

The thought of you never left my mind,
Our bodies, our lives secretly entwined.

I saw your little heart beating fast,
That happiness I felt will always last.

I miss you more than you could know,
I can't believe I let you go.

My heart is broken, my body weeps,
I long for the day to forever sleep.

I feel so empty, so incomplete,
I'm sorry my bubby that we never did meet.

    I can definitely relate to this poem. i was only 6 weeks and 4 days, when i had this done... and it was the worst day of my life, 6 months later it still hurts just as much...
