The rain fell down that night
droplets piercing her face
no match for her tears.
He was yelling at her
Is this what you want!
In the middle of the street
she fell to her knees
it was all too much for her–
the aching in her heart
the loss of her baby
the one she gave up on
without a second thought…
He would have been born today.
She couldn’t stop thinking about him.
What had she done?
