Walking to school one morning, pass by one of my neighbors' house. Im walking with my friend now, she and i both like the same person. OH NO my crush is approaching both of us now. What do i do? palms are sweaty head feals heavy! what is he asking me? Oh yea sure i said. next thing i open my eyes and im laying next to him in my bed at my house! I look under the covers....nothing im wearing nothing! I gasp and make a run for some clothes, put them on and i gently push my crush out the window! I look at the clock, its midnight. quietly he leaves with no goodbye! I go back to sleep only to find a wet spot where my crush was sleeping. My mind races at the thought! What if im.....NO NEVER! I swore i wouldn't! i go back to sleep throwing away the covers! Over the next few weeks im throwing up every morning! i take a test and its...POSITIVE! this cant be true not to me! Then the word abortion comes to my mind..NO i will not kill my baby! morning comes i find the loosest pair of pants and the baggiest shirt i have to hide my stomach! I brush my teeth and comb my hair! look in the mirrow and see somone. i dont know who that person is anymore! i've been lying to myself all this time! i start to cry and my mom asks if im aright? yes i reply i shaved my leg and i got cut...its nothing mom! Ok she yelled back. I resume my my positions and walk out the door. I run down the staires careful not to run too fast or my baby might get pushed out of place. Morning mom, Morning dad i shout! Hi honey they both reply. Hungry dad asks me? Yea im starving. I dont know what it is but im really hungry(yea i wonder why im so hungry?) I gobble down one omelette and several pancakes! I kiss my mom and dad goodbye, adn as im running out the door to catch the bus i yell, Oh yea and by the way......Im Pregnant

Lame. Super lame. Poorly written, not a poem, bracingly awful treatment of the subject. This thing, not unlike most folks (yourself included) should have beeen aborted long ago.
