Abortion

It speaks for itself.

You read about how bad abortion is,
How it is murder,
How everyone who believes it is fine
Is going to rot in hell.
Well,
I guess I'm rotting in hell.
I find nothing wrong with it,
Don't believe that you are killing a child.
It is only a bundle of cells,
A fetus.
If you can't take care of the child,
Why let it live a crappy life,
Why create another serial killer?
If you were raped,
Why would you want to have a constant reminder
Every time you looked into your child's face?
It's is the mother's choice,
That will never change.

This is how I feel but I want your honest opinion.

au contrair these bundles of cells are the same bundle of cells you have in your body at this moment and at 10 days of life there is a tiny little heartbeat. I disagree with you but you have the right and courage to have your own opinion but to those who dont want children there is birth control available to all which is a better solution than yours. we will all have to answer to the creator of life someday to our actions or non actions. just something to think about!

I agree with Wicahpi lyozza on this. This does make a powerful statement though.

I cannot make a judgment or comment about the subject matter
but I can say that it is a brave thing to write about.

I, too, believe that this would make a good story instead of a poem;
something to consider.

I've written a few poems about my rapist/rape and it took a lot out of
me to write them; but necessary. I do not know what the right decision
is for anyone unless I am walking in their shoes. I'm not even sure I make
correct decisions for myself at times. It's hard to know and each decision
that is made has consequences later that we just don't see yet.

Good job

I agree with you. We must make peace with our deeds someday. No-one has the right to control or tell someone what is right or wrong in their life. A powerful poem.

kind of a touchy subject with me so i won't really comment too much but i thought this was expressed well and you did great on it...

I like this. I mean sure I agree, but that's not the point, not why I like it. It has a certain flow to it, and a sting of honesty that can be hard to find. Good job yay!

Hello.

First off. I do actually like your poem, and never mind everyone else, they have their positions in life, and boys won't ever have to deal with the after affects of raping someone. It is the mother's choice, not the child's, and yes I'm sorry, but I'm directing most of this to my friend, Scaggs. If you believe so heavily in your so called "god" then you should also realize that your god will give the baby a second chance, a third chance, and every chance he can, till they get it right. He is supposed to be all forgiving. Therefore, this will not be his "death" but a new chance. Don't hold a grudge against people who are making this decision.

Now, the poem itself, i think you would do better at it as a story, you could get so much more in depth with it. I believe it would be the best piece i've read. But however, it is good as a poem, just not to the best of everything.

Sorry for the long review, you did great. ^-^ keep going for it, you'll get there.

yes i dont tak side on that but if a person gets raped ad the baby is harmfulor thy cant take care of it or it would be sickly then yes and no but well written.

I would have to agree 50%..
Becasue you could at least put it for adoption...
You don't have to kill a living being...
But ont he other side.. that kid can turn out just as bad as the raper...
Its a complicated topic... But great job expresing your emotions.
Keep on writing :)
