Silent

by epoet - Libra

Silent cries
all over the world.
Little eyes
never seeing at all.

When I was made
you didn't know me at all.
What I'd be
you'll never know.

I might have been 
your very best friend.
The things I might have done
could have saved the world.

Silent tears 
never dry on their own.
Precious ears
never hear at all.

If you would have
just let me be,
I know I would've 
made it on my own.

I'm sure I could've learned
but you didn't want to try.
Well now I'm gone 
and it's your turn to cry.

Silent screams
echoing in your ears.
Crazy dreams
showing you your fears.

What you did
can never be reversed.
But what about next time,
will you do it again?

Didn't you love me?
I was part of you.
Unfortunately, for me 
there wasn't room for two.

Silent hearts
never beating at all.
Worlds apart
that's what we were.

You and I 
will never know
just what might've happened
had you let nature go.

Silent hands
never creating at all.
Love still stands
even though yours took a fall.

That's okay mommy,
I forgive you
because I love you......

Reason for writing:

    My inspiration for this poem was a frien of mine who I was really close to.  She had an abortion that I didn't know about.  One day we started talking about abortion and this is what I felt, so I wrote it down and sent it to her.  When she replied back she told me about her abortion and I felt so bad.  She told me that reading this made her rethink her life and how she should be living it and it made me feel good to accomplish a change in her life.
