Image Bearer

Little image bearer

Growing in the dark

Who should choose your fate?

While you are formed so perfectly

Within a woman’s womb,

Without there seems a choice to make,

To decide if there is room.

No money, no love, too young, too old

Circumstances don’t seem right.

To those who think they have to choose,

It seems a hopeless plight.

We know it’s really life,

Not just a blob of cells

We see the baby on the screen

Her fingers and her toes

We hear the heart beat at three weeks;

The beat that tells the truth.

So why, as if we’re God,

Do we even try to make excuse?

Why do we think the choice to kill

Will not come back and haunt?

It will. What could have been

Will over shadow every waking thought.

Little image bearer

Growing in the dark

Who will choose your fate?
