A Baby's Plea

My name could have been Jerry,
Or maybe even little Mary,
You see, this I will never know,
Because my mommy didn't let me grow.
I don't understand why she didn't love me,
There are so many things she will never see.
My first words, first steps, my first tiny smile,
I wasn't even worth that extra mile.

I would have made her so proud of me,
I will never know what I was meant to be.
I would have been so good,
Always trying to do as I should.
I will never know what love is like,
Never even ride my first bike.

How I wish to feel her arms around me,
Holding me close that's how it should be.
All these things I will never know,
My mommy gave me no choice, I had to go.
You ask "Why all these things had to be?"
You see my mommy chose to abort me.

Give me one last wish before I go away,
Hear my plea...All Babies deserve to have a say!!
