As soon as you met me, you knew my fate
I was so young, so I didn't know
I was warm, peaceful, and sinless, though
You were scared, unknowing, and with hate

Toward whom, I don't know, but I can say
You were firm, and settled...wouldn't give me a chance
To walk, laugh, run, play, or ballroom dance
Though I went through a few, I never saw day

You went to the doctor, and as soon as you knew
Your mind was set, you were just fifteen
Though you were the freshman homecoming queen
It could've been a great president you slew

I might have cured cancer, or won twelve Grammy awards
I could've discovered a planet or sang rock 'n roll
But of course, your appearance had to take toll
So I had to die, with what seemed like fifty swords

You didn't even know who was my real father
But I'm sitting on my daddy's lap right here in heaven
You know, right now I would be eleven
Did you ever imagine my future? I know you didn't bother

You murdered me, you know, like it or not
I never married, graduated, or got my first car
Even crawl or talk- I didn't get that far
I didn't even dream my first dream or think my first thought

My life was over before it even began
Though I was still alive, I was never born
You discarded my like clothes over worn
When told I existed, you just cried and ran

I don't know why I was so unwanted
Life is beautiful, the best gift ever
But now I'm with God, to live forever
You thought killing me would leave you untaunted

I believe that I've made my point clear
That abortion is wrong and evil-driven
But if you ask, you'll still be forgiven
Still think of life- how precious, how dear!
