Abortion Poem

Next Poem >>

I am a married mother of 3. Together my husband & I made a decision to terminate our pregnancy, the choice we made on that one day, has caused pain & heartache to the two of us and our children for 3 years now, unfortunately in life there are some things you can never change. I just hope I can forgive myself & my story can be a wake up call to someone else.

Remorse Is Forever

©  Ebony Angel B.
I can't believe I took your life
I know now and I knew then, I had no right.
It was a selfish choice than I made.
I chose myself when your life, I could have saved.
I thought it would be easier to terminate
But i still feel the remorse 3 years to the date.
You were one of Heavens Angels that GOD lent to me.
And I took your life, could GOD forgive me.
I was lost and confused and didn't know what to do.
So I selfishly chose me, when I should have chose you.
I regret that I will never see your face.
or never comfort you with a motherly embrace.
That decision has put a strain on our marriage.
I believe what we did was the cause of our recent miscarriage.
I hope GOD can forgive us, and that you can do.
To bring you back there is nothing I wouldn't do.
Live on my love I will see you at the gate.
To hold, love and kiss you Mommy just can't wait.
I'm sorry I've stolen an Angel away.
I will feel Remorse FOREVER, because of that day.

Definitely made me cry. I will pray for you. Don't know if you've been to the Pro-life Rally in Washington D.C. but I'm sure they'd love to have you and to hear your story.

yea...I had one too and I absolutely regret it, its been almost 8 months and I still haven't forgiven myself. I wanted to keep it, but my "boyfriend at the time" didn't want it. he had a 2 year old son, and me being me I let him get into my head with all the "I cant have another kid, my family will hate you, and you don't need a kid right now you need to enjoy life" that he said to me, 4 days after I did it, he started talking to his sons mom again. He left me lonely, lost and depressed..duno how I will get over it. I miss my baby everyday...I will never have an abortion again it was the first and last time, and if I could go back I would, I wouldn't care if I had to do everything myself I rather be a single mom then not a mom at all...to a baby I once had....

It's hard to believe that it's been 17 years since I made that selfish decision. Your 13 year old sister and 11 year old brother will never know how lucky they would have been to have you as an older sibling. I regret not having you despite the social fall-out that I would have endured. Your life was not meant for me to take. I hope you can forgive me and I can't wait until I can hug you.

My mother had an abortion before I was born. She told me when I was 18, which means my sibling would've been 3 years older than me. I am 26 now, and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of them. This poem was so touching, I am sorry you are going through what you are going through. There isn't a day that goes by my mother doesn't regret what she did, I do too! will be praying for you and your husband

Your story has touched my heart, as all abortion stories so often do. Please remember that God can see deep inside your heart. He knows you regret the decision to abort your baby. He knows you have to live with that decision each and every day! He also wants you to know that He loves you and forgives you! Through this life experience, you have an opportunity to help change the hearts and minds of a nation who is blind and deaf to the pain and suffering caused by abortion. You can make a difference in another young mother and her child's lives. This poem is a huge first step. God bless you.

I'm so sorry I know how you feel I made that same painful decision and to this day I cry and reading your poem I cry I've never hurt so bad in my life and would give anything to take it back I was selfish and I too have other children, but nothing can replace this child and I will truly never forgive myself I talk to her/or him every night when I go to sleep and just say I'm sorry I love you.

Although I have never had an abortion your story touched my heart. I wish that everyone who is considering abortion could read your poem as well as many of the others on this site. God bless you and your family.
