03.30.11 | CONFUSING AND SCARED, THERE IS A DECISION MADE WITH THIS CHOICE
A CHILD HAS TO PAY
SHE PUTS ITS LIFE IN HER HANDS
AND THEN SHE DESTROYS ITS ONLY CHANCE TO BECOME SOMEONE IN LIFE
YOU SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THE BABY BEFORE YOU HAD SEX
BECAUSE YOU HAVE DESTROYED A GIFT FROM GOD
YOU KILL, YOU DESTROYED
NEVER WILL THIS BABY BE ABLE TO GROW UP OR SHOW ITS LOVE
YOU'LL NEVER HEAR IT SAY I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU
GOD DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE PRIVILEGE TO CARRY A CHILD FOR NOTHING
WHEN YOU KILL, YOU DESTROY THAT CHILD'S DREAMS AND HOPES
HOW INNOCENT A BABY IS... HOW CAN YOU PUT IT TO DEATH?
WHAT IF YOU WERE ABORTED
YOU COULD HAVE NEVER HAD LIFE |
