Mommy I Love You
Mommy I love you!
Mommy I really do!
I came to be on this earth to spend time with you.
Mommy, I can hear your voice and oh it's so sweet!
I move around in your womb to the sound of your heartbeat.
I can't wait to be born so I can see your beautiful face.
I want to grow up and get to know this place.
One day when I get big, I can be a doctor, policeman or firefight.
I have a future that is going to be so bright.
Mommy, you have seemed a little sad and I don't know why.
I really miss your happy voice and wish you would not sigh.
Today we go to the doctors (that's what I want to be!!)
I think he is going to see how big I am and what he is going to see.
Today seems a little off and I start to feel some pain.
Today you took away my life because you couldn't handle your own pain.
Today the doctor forced me out of my nice,warm and safe home.
Today I went back to heaven but not before they put pieces of my body
in a container dome.
Today I learned about abortion and what it does to babies like me.
I would have liked to be born so that I could be free.
I am not a clump of cells and my body parts are not to be sold.
I wanted to grow up until I got old.
I am a human being that has every right to be here on this earth.
Mommy, why didn't you give me a chance at birth?
I deserve that chance too!
But what did you do?
Mommy, I am a miracle sent to earth from my Father In Heaven.
He loves me and all of his children.
