‘Take this pill first thing tomorrow morning’
Were the words the doctor said as he gave me the antidote to suck the life outta me
Voices in my head repeat them
Silently
Constantly
Reminding me that i’m a Murderer.
They said it wouldn’t hurt
But, they lied
Cos on the inside
Ive been fucked up lately
Nightmares on the daily
Cos i wanted to keep my baby but..
I couldn’t.
I know i shouldn’t touch on such a touchy topic,
My minds yelling for me to stop
As the words flow from my soul like
Miss you
Wanna kiss you
And yet we never met
This is as close as I’m gon get
To tell you how much I regret what i did to you
I took your life-
Before you could live it
Took my love-
Before i could give it
And..
I apologize.
I apologize for all the lies I told you,
For the dreams that I sold you when you were conceived..
..I made you believe that I was ready
I acted like my world was steady
When it wasn’t.
They said i’d only end up in two places..
Behind prison bars with court cases
OR,
In a casket.
I didn’t feel like adding teenage mother to the list of terrible shit they said id become
So
Instead of having a son..
OR a daughter without a father and out of wedlock,
I decided not to keep you
& to speak the truth about the situation
Aint a day that goes by that you don’t cross my mind..
When i see another chick with her child
& i just be like
‘FUCK.’
But I just keep it to myself
Cos what the hell can i really do?
But say,
I’m sorry i aborted you.
