It was not an easy choice,
Although it seemed to me
The only thing to do,
But that doesn't mean
I never grieved.
As they probed and sucked
It felt as if it was my heart
That they were wrenching out.
And though I never saw your face,
And you didn't have a name,
You'll always be my child;
And I will never cease to wonder
What colour were your eyes?
This poem was written for people who ever consider having an abortion.
