I had no choice but to feel the pain…
You went on, laughing with your friends, probably scamming on the next girl…
I told you what was going on…
You told me that you would be there.
You lied.
A life existed within me.
I had to endure it on my own as the life died inside of me.
It did not stop there.
I told you I was scared.
You were too busy.
As you continued to live as though I never existed in your life, not only did I have to endure the emotional pain of the lies you told, my physical body still had to carry a part you.
I expected you to be better.
This was a part of you.
Just because you close your eyes and pretend it isn’t happening, does not make it less real.
“Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.” (Jeremiah 1:5)
I had no choice but to feel the pain…
You had the option to avoid it… And you did.
What a lucky duck…
