To my unborn child.

by Jade Rossiter   Jun 19, 2007


It's a tough decision, one that i can only make.

There will be no going back, the outcome i will take.

This is the hardest thing I've ever done, I'm not the only one.

But my life feels so much different with this added bump.

Is it far to keep my baby, to whom i can't properly provide, when daddy's gone and mummy's scared and that i cannot hide.

You're eight weeks know and growing, getting bigger everyday, will i take you're chance away to have you're first birthday.

I'm only seventeen, and that is no excuse, for when i done the deed, i didn't expect the news.

I know you cannot hear me, but i explain to you why, why i cannot keep you and have to say goodbye.

I'm so sorry baby, I love you x

    It was an ok poem, but i don't agree with it, if you weren't ready for a child, you should have used protection (unless you were raped). i wont vote on this because it is just going of my opinion on abortion, but having my son at 17 was the best thing i ever did. i had my first child at 13 and that was from rape, and he is in a different country now because of complications with his dad and my family, but i could never imagine taking the life of a child growing inside of me. i admire that you were strong enough to write about this.
