I Didnt Get A Chance. . . . .


I didnt get a chance to take my first step To own my first toy To breathe my first breath I didn't get a chance to be a big sister or brother Father or mother Son or daughter I didn't get a chance to cry I wasn't even given an option on whether I wanted to die Don't you love me mommy ? What did I do so wrong To make you decide I couldn't hear my first song Why make me pay for yours and daddys mistake You didn't want me in this world but I still had a place Doctor says just go with adoption But my mommy's too selfish, she says its not an option We would have been great together I woulda been a girl But that's all gone now Since you say I don't belong in the world
