Abortion Pill

I heard she writhed and cursed all night I heard she whined and complained about her chest feeling tight I heard her mother whispered to her until daylight Promising her child's that it'll be alright.

Until she was gone Stopped fighting for her life, she was done They told me she had loved better They said you promised to marry her later Funny,

I refrained from mentioning that you once promised that to me At the back of my mind a voice keeps whispering "that could have been me" Had I not jumped ship, Sacrificed at the alter of love I could have been that sheep.

Now I'm caught at a hard place Don't know if I should be thankful that I'm safe Or cry for the life that probably took my place. For had I not have left, I would have been the one on that hospital bed, Parents crying like they have lost it all, Had I not left, It could have been me, Dead because the abortion pill failed to it's job.
