Mourning After Kill Pill
No! Please don't take that pill!
I plead with you, don't make that kill!
I know..you are so very young.
But, I could be a daughter or a son.
My precious little life began at conception..
Please..don't let my blood run crimson..
How do you know, if you don't give me a chance..
If I like playing with cars or learning to dance.
I could have your nose or your eyes.
But, you would not know it..if I die.
I may be of no indifference to you.
But, I have no way..for myself to choose.
Let me live! I cry out silently..
For..I am just a wee little somebody.
Give me a chance! I will make you smile!
Please I plead, keep me around for awhile.
Let me live..I pray and watch me grow!
I'll bring you love and joy and by your little hero.
