The Silent Scream

Through the thick fuzziness of black and white noise on the screen
I saw it there, lying and resting in it's sanctuary
Where nothing can harm it or unsettle it
It moves a little every now and then
Trying to find a nice comfortable position
Before it settles down again to rest
Just looking at it sent waves of emotion spiraling through me
And it brought a tear to my eye
Because I know...
.
Suddenly, the image started moving
The black and white noise started jerking back and forth
And I can see it moving violently
It's only sanctuary threatened
It stretched as far as it could to the left
And then again to the right
But there was only so much space for it to move in
And there was no escape
.
And then, a vacuum-like thing appeared on screen
Moving back and forth
Looking for something
Looking for it
It started moving harder, jerking back and forth
Trying to shy away from the vacuum as much as it could
But the vacuum was too strong
.
After much wrestling, it happened
As the vacuum-like thing found it's target
It opened up its tiny little mouth
To scream
THE SILENT SCREAM
.
Before it was torn into shreds
Leaving only fragments of bones and flesh
And all I could see was little black and white pieces floating around
On the now quiet and silent screen
Where only a while ago
Slept a 12-weeks old baby
.
Everyone should be responsible for their own actions
ABORTION is CRUEL!

fatty and i had to watch this video of a real-life abortion process during one of our CMPC sessions. and i realized that once a baby is formed, it feels. eventhough it's in your body, it FEELS. so please, think before you leap. the baby is innocent. do NOT kill such a precious thing because of your own mistakes.
