Abortion Poem

I wanted to keep my baby, but I know I couldn't. I'm 19 years old with a very strict Hispanic family. I cried days before my termination and days after. I was 10 weeks. Just before my termination I saw my baby on the ultrasound just moving away..looking happy. It was very hard. And a life lesson truly learned.

My Unborn Love

© Dimplez
The day I found out about you
I didn't know what to do
I broke down and cried
Because I knew I couldn't have you

I went home that night
more scared then ever
I fell asleep holding onto you
And you made me feel better.

I woke up the next morning
Saying good morning to you
I ate a full breakfast
So that you can be full too.

During the weeks I kept you protected
kept you warm and safe from the unexpected
As I laid holding my belly, looking at the moon
I realized my baby, that I have fallen in love with you

My son, my daughter, my unborn love
You are a gift sent to me and daddy from above
I have learned a love like no other
And that's the love between a child and mother,

Baby, tonight is my last night with you
Tomorrow you will be with someone new
His name is GOD and he is expecting you
To my unborn child who I will never get to meet
I hope when your in heaven
You will forgive daddy and me.

I love you and I'm sorry

  • I am sorry Hun. I know exactly how you feel. When I was fourteen I got pregnant and I knew I couldn't take care of it and if I did have it there was a chance of me dying so I had to have an abortion too. I am so sorry.

  • I know exactly how you feel. I had to have an abortion too, first because I'm 18, a senior in high school, and I live on my own with a roommate. My part time job isn't enough for even me. My parents are really strict and there was no way for me to tell them I was pregnant. I was practically alone. My baby's daddy also didn't want to have it. He told me it was best to have the abortion because we had nothing to provide this child with. He promised he would be there for me no matter what, and that WE would get through this. So I did it. I regret ever doing it, first because I'm here now suffering with all this pain alone. After my abortion, my baby's daddy talked to me for a week acting like he care, and after that week, he never spoke to me again. He never cared. There is not one day, hour, minute, or second that I don't think about my baby. I wish I could've had it. I was the happiest person during my pregnancy. But once I took that life away, I've never been the same.

  • So sorry for you guys. but if you have wanted it you should have kept it, yes there are some circumstances in life that lead you to no good decision, but it's your blood your creator you feel it inside you alive, even in the first few weeks. But I think sometimes parents also contribute towards abortion cause they think that you are not ready, too young to maintain a child ect..but sometimes they don't realized it cursed you for the rest of your life. I was pregnant 16...I was depressed at first but I got full support from my family and now my daughter is 21 years so beautiful and I am proud.
