India, like many other countries, has legalized abortion if there is a risk to the life of the mother or the unborn child’s health. Still people do not take the expecting mother to specialized doctors but choose to go to quacks, thus risking her life.
A small poem on the same:-
SOME DAY, I HOPE…
With a heavy heart I approach the place
All eyes I feel stare at my face
“I don’t want a child” is all I say.
“You don’t want 'this' child” is what they say
As if there is always a child in there.
I have made my mind.
I know it’s right.
Even the law I know is on my side.
These are people I know who believe in me
But then there are others who just don’t see.
My honor, my body, my health is my own
Yet they think of someone who is unborn,
Something which is just cells, yet to be grown.
I walk inside, hoping some day,
My rights will be mine and not put at stake.
Someday I hope all people will understand,
Respect me as a person and give my decision a stand.
