Her Last Breath

by Lonely Rider   Sep 30, 2009


Her Last Breath

Torturous darkness
engulfed her
growing grimmer
with each passing
moment.

Distant lullabies
echoed, that once
pacified her
tiny self.

Ruthlessly
dragged out
of her cozy cocoon,
legs ripped apart,
pain seared
through
immature mass.

Final breath trailed...

Blank.
Murdered by
betrayal.

A gruff voice announced
"Abortion successful"

    This is heart breaking, such powerful words. I am totally against abortion, except in certain cases, but that's my personal point-a- view. Yes abortion should applies for rape victims, or health issues but apart from that, I think today ladies has so much choices not become pregnant and more over if our male partners loves us as he pretends, why think family planning concerns only females? Men who loves their women, protect them not just from dangers but from enduring all those pain. So too bad today that some women deliberately got pregnant with the intention that it's easy, they will abort it.

    Very well done on such a delicate subject, 5/5, kel.

    When we denie a soul entrance to this world it is indeed the ultimate betrayal.

    This poem is written with good taste and class....it worded my feelings on this subject to a tee and I am glad to know there are more people in this world who feel the same.

    Bravo, girl!
