My dear unborn child,
I never want you
To feel excluded
I never want you
To believe you're ugly
Just because you look different
From the other kids
My dear unborn child,
I never want you
To feel emotional pain
I never want you
To be ruthlessly bullied
Or be called a freak
Or a ******
My dear unborn child,
I never want you
To experience heartbreak
I never want you
To fall in love with someone
Who can't love you back
Or treasure your true beauty
My dear unborn child,
I never want you
To develop a mental illness
I never want you
To sink into depression
To the point where
You suffocate
And wish I had left you
Unborn.
My dear unborn child,
I never want you to hurt
I never want you to suffer
I never want you to end up
Like me.
My dear unborn child,
Because I love you
I have decided to spare you
I have decided to grant you
Your unspoken wish
I have decided to leave you
Unborn, forever.

Unborn, forever.
My experiences have told me never to bring children into this world. The earth is too cruel. I don't want anyone else to suffer.
