To My Aborted Fetus
I loved you so much
And I wanted you to stay
But I just wasn’t brave enough
To wait to see your face
I let fear get a hold of me
I took the coward way
I knew deep down that it was wrong
But I didn’t turn away
I lay down on the table
I opened up my legs
He pushed his hands inside me
I couldn’t hide my tears
He asked, ‘do you want me to stop?’
I slowly shook my head
I heard the vacuum come on
Seconds later you were dead
The blood pooled all around me
A reminder of my sin
My precious baby was now gone
I’d never see you again.
I’m sorry, please forgive me
Is all that I can say
I feel so very guilty
I took your life away.
I know you’re up in heaven
With Jesus close to you
Please ask Him to forgive me
I really did love you
