Haunted by my past

Reflecting on life and the decisions I have made

An extravagant lifestyle, a beautiful home

But the price I have paid no one else knows.

Sleepless nights and in constant doubt

Trying to accept I was young and a tough decision was made

But a mothers love should be unconditional

In this regard I evidently failed.

Life taken before its time

Simultaneous joy and fear

Unacceptable consequences from a forbidden relationship

I gave up my seed.
