Can You Hear

Can you hear that? Can you see that? It’s me mommy… Aren’t you proud? Aren’t you ready? I am here I am real I can’t wait to meet you I can’t wait to meet my daddy I can’t wait to be held in your arms Wait… What’s that? You don’t want me? But…I didn’t even do anything I never got to see you I never got to see daddy I never got to feel you hold me Mommy… Please don’t do this Please change your mind Please give me a chance I promise I will make you happy I promise I will make you proud Just give me a chance I hear this isn’t the first time I wonder why you keep doing this Mommy… Please stop this… Abortions are wrong Give babies a chance at life Give them to a family who cares Give them to a woman who can’t bear Give them life and receive one yourself
