Poem – You are not a Mistake

Some people in life have been told by their mum or dad that they weren’t planned. They were a mistake. They sometimes say it with so much hatred, resenting the existence of that child as to them, he/she caused them so much discomfort.
I write this Poem for such people, who I believe are not a mistake.

*

You are not a Mistake

You are not a mistake, don’t feel depressed

Though she was upset with the Positive pregnancy test.

You’re here now, make something of your life – find a way

cos some babies were born and didn’t last a day.

*

Your parents say they didn’t plan for you

As a little baby, what were you to do?

Its not your fault, that doesn’t make you bad

So quit walking around with a face so sad.

*

You now think you don’t deserve to live

Do you know what the future has to give?

Thinking they don’t love you, wanting to take your life. Wait!!

People who did that, made the biggest mistake.

*

Prove them wrong, make your dreams a reality

Be the best that you can ever be.

They’ll change that bad confession soon

As in life you start to bloom.

You are not a Mistake but a ray of Sunshine.
