DO THEY TELL YOU ABOUT THE SUFFERING

Do they tell you about the suffering
You might endure for the rest of your life
Do they tell you about the painful sting
Emotional trauma and moral strife?
Do they tell you how you might miss your child
No matter when he is killed before birth
Do they tell you how this longing runs wild
Chasing your Soul to the ends of the Earth?
Do they tell you how the man could suffer
His emptiness and pain untrumpeted
Do they tell you how chance to be Mother
Could depart if your insides are twisted?
    How do they sell you on this 'procedure'
    That steals your life with your child's yet obscure?
