The Unheard Cry

My heart beats blood through my veins
but I'm not safe from all lifes pains
my very life is in my mother's hands
please God I pray I'm in her plans

My eyes have yet to see sunlight
my tiny hands to hold my mother tight
lifes road is bear, I have just begun
but give me a chance, it can be done

Mother and I, so close, we're one
the cycle of life, it has begun
the choice is yours, you must not give in
feel the unheard cry from deep within

All life begins from a single seed
if you cut me, do I not bleed
life itself so precious it seems
if you rip me out, will I not scream!
