[hometext] => A dear friend of mine recently had an abortion...I wrote this for her. This poem is not deciding if abortion is right or wrong. It is simply for her.
[bodytext] => She walked alone Along deaths cold corridors So tenderly She held a tiny light within her womb Her tears falling behind her footsteps The bitter silence Of her own despair A crime of forsaken love Looking toward the heavens But only seeing black clouds She felt the rain Against her skin She felt the rain Run deep into her heart Some mistakes Time will never heal She lay in the bed Of her own sanity Holding the Little Light No one heard her screaming White roses For the one about to lose White roses For you, my dear friend Time passes so slowly The Little Light stirs Such a small amount The empty footfalls Of the inevitable Appraoch Cold hands hold her own Hot tears glide down her cheeks The time has come The Little Light begins to dim... Slowly Fading into nothing Fading Now darkness The cries of grief Of guilt Are now silenced by this sight: Such a small light Almost unseen Floating so carefree Up into the sky Up Up Touching the moon This Little Light Has no worries at all Leaving this world far behind Becoming a beautiful star For all the world to see And as she looks up at the sky this night This young girl Despite her terrible sadness She smiles For she can see Her beautiful Little Star Twinkling next to the moon Not a care in the world A tiny Star Now smiling Always and Forever [comments] => 1 [counter] => 206 [topic] => 52 [informant] => Night_Child [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => goodbyepoetry )
