I had a very personal experience a couple of days ago,so I made a poem out of it.


In the quiet shadows of the night, she stands alone
A young woman, caught in a web of uncertainty
Her heart was heavy with the weight of a life-changing decision

To be a mother, to embrace the joy and the struggle
Or to walk the path less taken, the path of fear and bravery
A choice that will shape her destiny, her very existence

Pregnancy, a gift or a burden, a blessing or a curse
Her body a battlefield, her mind a storm of conflicting emotions
The whispers of society, the judgment of others, a constant presence

To carry life within her, to nurture and protect
Or to end it before it begins, to face the consequences of her actions
The choice is hers alone, a heavy burden to bear

A murderer in the eyes of some, a mother in the eyes of others
She walks the thin line between right and wrong, between love and loss
Her heart was torn in two, her soul searching for answers

In the end, she finds her courage, her strength, her voice
To stand tall in the face of adversity, to embrace her truth
To choose her path, to shape her destiny

For in the end, she is not just a young woman
She is a warrior, a survivor, a beacon of hope
A testament to the power of choice, of bravery, of life.
