Mother Murderer

Not a sequel to the Unborn Child but an extension of a sort.... Part of a debate on abortion

Mother Murderer (by Ahmad Babar):
The room was dark and she could feel the pain
Guilt was streaming down her veins
It was nothing like what she had imagined
Only God Knows how it had happened
Her thoughts went back to that night of pleasure
Lust had taken over her
She had forgotten about all that lay ahead
Now she was crying on the hospital bed
She had killed her own child
She was haunted by the screams she heard as he died
She felt like breaking all the mirrors on her way home
She didn't even want to see herself, she wished to be all alone
She had confined herself to her room
All night long she used to stare at the moon
One day she finally came out and went to the park
She saw families playing till it was dark
Every time she used to see a mother with her baby
She sank further into guilt and misery
She wondered what if she hadn't decided to let go?
What if she had stepped up to say no?
She fell on her knees and broke down crying
She cursed herself and started praying
She prayed that no mother ever does this again
She hoped that no one ever has to face this pain
She begged God for no one else to be like her
She prayed that the world never has another "Mother Murderer"
For one final time she said good-bye
She wished to be with her son as for the last time she closed her eyes
