If The Unborn Could Speak

If The Unborn could speak, what would they say?

Would they say that they could dream?

Would they say that they could pray?

Or what if they could only live; wouldn't that suffice?

Shouldn't that cause us, to spare them the knife?

Who are we to say, that these little ones have no right?

That we should just destroy them, and put them out of sight.

Is a soul reduced to thriving within the insides of the mature?

Or can it reside within those that are truly minute in stature?

A six year old soul passes into eternity and many shed a tear.

But one who never sees the light of day is killed and the sadness is not sincere.

Where is the Justice?

Where is the shame?

What gives us the right to kill and to walk away?

It may be legal, but is it right?

When many kill innocents not in the dark but in broad daylight?

Those who were destined to be leaders, teachers, mothers and fathers,

They were all slaughtered at the hands of doctors, yet those doctors were not bothered.

Their oath forbid the very act they performed.

And yet they continue to do it without any desire to reform.

Where have we gone, my dear America?

If the Unborn could speak, what would they say?

I can tell what they would say.

"How could you kill me before I saw the light of day."
