Little Angel's Voice

Little Angel's Voice

A Poem by Marc Marlon Villaflor
"

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

Marc Marlon Villaflor
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.

I hear it also in America. I'm pro life and it bothers me when they get rid of children for they can give it up for adoption or foster parents . A very good poem with a good message...:)

You are welcome...:)
You do a good job showing the interconnectedness of a mother and her unborn baby, and do a good job of showing how emotional having an unwanted pregnancy can be. Although this doesn't go with my personal views, it's a very well written poem.

A sad poem, but that's the world that we live in, we say it will never happen to us until it does...great work

It is a good poem. But I personally Don't like the tale though. I think you should just let them do what they want, if they grew up in a bad place, it can hurt them way worse. Just voicing my opinion though, so good poem to share your ideas

Thanks for the reads :)
Not bad. There's some missing punctuation here and there, but that's a minor issue. I don't much think you ought to be bothering writing about this sort of thing, since there's already so much content on it already, and to be perfectly honest with you there's really nothing new here to make this stand out from the other droves of poetry about abortion. Whatever floats your boat.

Thanks Tri. :)
I liked the format, the color scheme and the mother and child dialogue type you applied on this piece. It's very unique. It also speaks a lot of truth about termination of a pregnancy and/or abandonment of life which does not only happen down here but all over the world, even the richest and most powerful country is no excemption to this practice. I liked the structure and the intention.

The suffering of life and more particularly, humanity, manifests itself upon many levels.

Thanks reading man :)
I totally agree with you on the topic of abortion, and I really loved this poem of yours! I just found one tiny error, because when you say, "I been hurt," do you mean I've? Overall spectacular poem!

I like the two voices of this one...we see both sides of a tragic story here. Very clever, yet distressing read. Nicely pen'd my friend.
