THE CHILD WHO WAS NEVER BORN
By: Martin Hudaceka
I am the human being denied the right to breathe
And I cry not for myself but the legacy they leave.
I am the voice in your conscience that cries from the bleak.
I am the words that the world is not willing to speak.
I am the gaze you will never see,
For I am the child who will never be.
I am the memory you cannot forsake,
I am the life they had no right to take.
But I am the error, the unfortunate mistake
I am the cold shiver that keeps you awake.
I am the touch that you will not feel.
I am the spirit that you cannot conceal.
They may tear me away,
And tear me apart,
But I had a right to life from before the start.
I am the heart that will not cease to beat
I am the footprints without any feet.
I am the innocent you can't put to sleep.
For I am the tears that the fallen will weep.
"It is interesting that today many women are so educated beyond their intelligence that they no longer understand the way God created them - with a womb to nurture life and breasts to nourish that precious life." ~ Nancy Campbell
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” (Jer. 1:5)
"The value of life has not changed; our culture has. We must turn from being a culture of death to one that values life. When life is not valued inside the womb, it will not be valued outside the womb."
