Little Angel's Voice

The unwanted child

         

 

 

Dark, cold and lonely space,
I cried, fears in my soul, confused about what the future may bring,
Chaotic, heartless, reality; we’re separated,
I've been hurt, I’ve languished pain, I’ve wished I never lost you, I've been haunted,
You never give me a chance to call you my Mother,
It breaks my heart my little angel, we've made a terrible mistake,
I dreamt about you and my father, seems I have your eyes and I have my father’s face,
You look like your father my son, and your eyes, so beautiful like mine,
I wish I could kiss you, hold you and cry with you,
I am sorry; I am too scared to fight for you my baby boy,
I wish you could hear my voice and feel the beat of my heart,
Sorry, I am sorry my angel, Goodbye…

Author's Note

Every year thousands of unwanted babies aborted, abortion is a massive ungodly practice of Doctors and Medical Practitioners that cost sometimes the life of the mother. I write this poem to give voice for those little angels that died and deprived a chance to live in this world.

I really liked that you told this from two perspectives. It is hard on a mother to give away her child (at least I should hope that it is) and it is sad. You do a great job expressing the regret, fear, anxiety, and love felt by both mother and child in this piece. I will stay away from arguing the moral issues here I think this could be used to persuade others to change their minds on this topic. Very powerful, great job.

Thanks a lot Imara :)

Nice piece; even if I disagree with your point of view it is still a powerful poem!

[Marc Marlon Villaflor]

Thanks Sir :)

[captain]

a very nice tribute, a powerful message!

[Marc Marlon Villaflor]

Thanks Captain :)

I'm glad you wrote this as someone who regretted the action. Others simply feel triumphant after. Again, a reality in words. Well written Marc, though I can't help but feel sad for those angels :(

[Marc Marlon Villaflor]

Yeah it is rampant around the world. I wish they will stop making-love or love-making if they can't raise a child. :)

[SimpleMind]

Ha! That'll never happen Marc! I guess what you're trying to say here is 'having sex' ... but I guess it's fine as long as both know how to control. Well, in our culture it's a different case :)

[TL Boehm]

no words, just ache. I've written on this topic too. Its so painful. That pain never abates. Peace.

[Marc Marlon Villaflor]

there's not enough talk about wife beating and charges of drunken misdeamenors

[Leslie Philibert]

like the poem, the layout fine, the words well chosen. I think it would be too lenghty to discuss abortion here, so I will simply say that you have written a good poem

[Marc Marlon Villaflor]

Thank you Sir Leslie.

[Ravyne Hawke]

Beautiful poem that captures your intentions clearly.

You picked a rather controversial subject with this one.
This is not something I personally would do (unless there were extreme medical circumstances and others were depending on me for their care as well), nor would I want any of my children to.
Now, having said that.. I'm not about to tell anyone else they can't. People have a myriad of reasons for such things. It is a personal choice and one I have no place in.

The back and forth conversational aspect you employed here was captivating.

Thanks Rogue :)
