A bitter mistake <br />Of two darkened souls. <br />A temptation they couldn't resist... <br />Leaving them both heartbroken, <br />Full of regret and pain. <br />Leaving her with the thought <br />Of no friends at school, <br />The stupid voices in her head and all around her school <br />Calling her cruel names.. <br />The thought of being a mother <br />At only 18... <br />And why she made such a stupid mistake. <br />Leaving him wondering <br />If he can still get into college, <br />The thought of being a father <br />At only 18... <br />And why he made such a stupid mistake. <br />They know they shouldn't kill the child, <br />But what are they supposed to do? <br />They meet a couple who can't have kids <br />And suddenly, God gives a miracle... <br />The miracle of a new life <br />And the miracle of <br />How He can use our mistakes <br />And turn the heartbreak they cause <br />Into beautiful pieces all fit together <br />For His grander plan.<br /><br />Hannah Diane Williams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-bitter-mistake/
