as though I am God

Contributed by LadyRose on Wednesday, 21st October 2009 @ 07:22:59 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



a ripe seed left in me
a life yet to grow into a person
my mistake was to make it
and I will pay for it
for I will kill it before it feels
and I will live with the thoughts
I will take it to its grave
this child left undone
as though I am God...
my mistake will have to suffer
I am taking its breath away before it can breath
I am not ready for it,I apologise
as though I am God...
I choose to get rid of it before it can feel
I mean its not murder,is it?
it does'nt even have a face yet?
........what would it look like?.........
they said its just the size of a bean now
its nothing yet,nothing yet
.......but it is mine....
that bean sized nothing......apart of me
am I God enough to take that away?
God enough to dig a grave for a bean sized thing......
my baby?

My god, I have no conception of the anguish someone making those decisions has to live through. It is such a private thing, the courage to share those thoughts is the sort of courage few will ever know. I read it several times, and each time, I was filled with awe for someone that can make that decision without crashing and burning. Good luck.

I agree with the first commenter for your poem...it's such a drastic and tough decision to make.

Let me just say that I do not understand your position,
I don't know you.
I may never be in your position.
But if you believe in signs or God ...or miracles...or anything for that matter...
then believe that I read your poem for a reason
You have really touched my heart, and I beg you to think wisely---actually not wisely but think openly of your decision, if theres any kind of alternative ...any kind of anonymous children's shelter you can take it...many parents out there can't have babies, you could widen your options
Don't let abortion be your only option.
who knows? your fear and pain could transform into a beautiful image of a happy couple grasping a brand new baby in their arms
Oh, the difference you could make in someone else's life!
And your child's
And your OWN.

Let me just say that this poem was written just as a thought and not because I had to make such a decision............
Personally I do not believe in the act of abortions but some women sometimes stand with such a decision to make and it must be horrible............I just tried to put myself in their shoes just to make sense of the situation...........

I certainly am not God enough to take a life....
