I Am Bored With

I am bored with life
Sometimes I think of life as a knife
A weapon
Something that can cause self destruction
Nowadays , it hurts me to see all these females have abortions
Where are the dads ?
This life was all I had
Life is full of drama and pain
There’s a storm in my heart but it rains through my eyes
Remembering all the things my brother said to me leaves my world cold and dry
But as the strong girl I grew up to be, I know I can and will fulfill my dreams !

Thank you Bridget :] . Mourning Mist - I KNOW THAT , but think about it : YES sex happens between two people but its always the FEMALE who has to stay with the child . Up to today , i have never seen a woman leave her baby with the father . The father can leave and go start another family repeating the same thing again .

This is really good. And I totally agree, life is full of pain and sorrow, lying and hate. But there is also beautiful things in life like love, and dreams. And being strong will always help each day seem a little more happy. Good work!

in many cases the abortion is not only the dads fault, sometimes sex happens between two people that should never have happened to begin with, and mature people know that not all birth control works..you take a chance every time you have sex..and if the relationship let us say as an example, is a husbands brother and it would have caused grief for another wife or the family..then an abortion could have been used,,meaning moms fault too that the abort happened

Okay yea sex happens but people choose to do it. And yea, it is sorta the ' Moms ' fault bcos they chose to have sex and not use a condom so i agree with what Gechi says :)
