These poems are written in the baby's perspective of wanting to live, but not having the choice to decide, and the mothers perspective of the aftermath of having to deal with what she has done.

Unforgotten 

It didn't hurt then
but now I feel the pain.
They took you from me
and nobody was to gain.
I told them to do it,
not only they are to blame.
If only things could be undone,
if so I would have you to claim.

I didn't think it would hurt
this much; this long.
I thought I would feel better
once you were gone.
The crying of a newborn baby
to me would sound like a song.
I realize now that what I did
was not only unfair to you, but wrong.

The feeling of you kicking
inside of me
would fill my heart
with such glee,
and I should've realized then
that you would be
a precious little baby
I could hold and see.

Today I will love you 

Today...
Today, I stretched my arms.
I wiggled my toes.
I rolled my shoulders.
I touched my nose.
Today, I have more senses;
More feelings than I'd had yesterday.

Tomorrow...
Tomorrow, I shall feel the fresh air,
For the first and last time.
Enjoy one more moment of
My mama's heartbeat;
Of mine.
I shall taste my mama's
Favourite food,
One last time...
I wish she'd realize that this isn't her life;
But mine.
Goodbye Mama, I love you!

My life 

My life; your choice
Your words; your voice
They bring sharp knife
Your choice; my life

No fair; can't cry
Cannot even say goodbye
I truthful; you lie
You live, I die

You lay; I fight
You wrong; me right
Total darkness; bright light
Sharp pain; goodnight

Going to sleep; you're tore
Me innocent; you whore
You fine; me sore
Heartbeat no more
