To Abort Or Not To Abort

Let the woman decide

Which life is more important?

The one with hopes and dreams,
with roles and responsibilities,
with dependents and admirers,

Or the one with just a beating heart?

A woman’s womb is open to public scrutiny,
Abort and you face a heavy penalty,
But if not, you suffer for eternity.

Will the state take responsibility
for the baby born by legal mandate?
Will the pro-life champions
ensure a good quality of life for an unwanted arrival?

Do they even know what it takes to raise a healthy, happy child?
Birthing is just the beginning.
