Why NOT me?

Why NOT me?

In the shadow of the womb, I lay,
Tiny and helpless, not yet on display,
Unknown to the world, silently I grow,
A life in waiting, with oh, so much to show.

But fate decides, with a cruel twist,
My future uncertain, in this rollercoaster abyss,
Cast aside, before I can even breathe,
My tiny heart is draining, unable to seethe.

Do they know my pain; my silent cries,
As they take away my one chance to rise?
In the folly of their choice, I was made.
A lost soul, not wanted, trapped in the depths of their parade.

Unseen, unheard, my existence denied;
My potential extinguished, as they decide.
But in the shifting dance of life and death,
I'll remain just a whisper, a forgotten breath.

For those who choose to overlook;
The beauty in me, the life they forsook,
Remember this, in the depths of your heart,
I was here, I did exist, I was a part.

Now I’m in the arms of the one who never cast away
Where I know I can sleep peacefully, and safely lay
For even if no one on the earth will take a gift from the creator 
I’ll forever accept him as my life giving savior!
