My heart dropped as my fears were confirmed
I was pregnant; for this I had not yearned
Where do I go?
To whom can I turn?
–
Hi there, Mommy
It’s little me
I’m your baby
Can’t you see?
–
I felt the tears running out of my eyes
Oh how I wish that this was a lie
Slowly I stood up and headed out
I needed to call him, there was no doubt
–
Hi, again, Mommy! Guess how old I am now?
You can now detect my brain waves, I don’t know how
But that means that I am 6 weeks!
I can move my hands, and soon my feet
–
He wants me to keep this thing
How can he not understand its sting?
Tomorrow I scheduled a consultation
After all this, I’ll deserve a vacation
–
Today I think I am feeling sad
Did I hear you say that I made you mad?
I’m sorry, Mommy, I didn’t mean to
I love you don’t you know that’s true?
–
Stupid doctor, says he wants me to wait
If I wait much more, it will be too late
I’ll try a different place
One that doesn’t cover the chairs in lace
–
I’m feeling really scared
Today I think that nobody has ever cared
Mommy, I’m here for you every day
Please, please don’t throw me away
–
Today I got the police to keep him away from me
He still wants the child, why can’t he see?
It isn’t a child yet!
Why can’t he just forgive and forget?
–
My little heart beats fast in fear
I do not like the things I can hear
Mommy, won’t you just listen to me?
I’m a little baby, can’t you see?
–
I can’t believe these people
Acting as though this sidewalk is a church with a steeple
Do they think they will change my mind?
That will never happen, they are in the blind
–
Today my fingernails started to show
Though, my hair has yet to grow
Oh, mother, can you hear them pray?
Will you not listen to what they say?
–
I can’t wait to get home in a few hours
To relax, maybe I’ll take a shower
Whatever I decide to do
I’ll be free from this curse
That’s so very true
–
Mommy! Make this stop
I’m really scared now
This thing is trying to kill me, somehow
I can’t keep swimming away
I want to be in your life to stay!
–
Oh, why am I in such pain?
But I guess there’s no pain, no gain
Soon it will be over for me
I’ll be able to go home, free
–
I can’t hold on any longer
I’m sorry that I am not stronger
Mommy, before I die
I just want to tell you goodbye…
–
[Heartbeat Stops]
–
Nightmares, why do you plague me so?
I didn’t do anything wrong, don’t you know?!
I need to be able to get my sleep
So shut up, don’t make another peep
–
Mommy, I’ll never stop loving you
I’m safe now, though once torn, its true
I don’t blame you for anything
I’m forgiving you for everything
–
When I first woke up, I was crying
I was so scared, after dying
Then an angel comforted me
I’m your special guardian now, if you ever need me
