And For That I Am Sorry Poem by Kellie Teter

I am part of you
whether you like
it or not, I am
and always will be
I am half of your heart
we have the same blood
even though I may
not be a part of you
that you want to know
Here I am, you gave me life
You helped me grow
Although I was a mistake
another mouth to feed
another dream you gave up
but I only wanted love
I meant no harm coming
into this world, into your life
rearranging the order of your goals
stealing your hopes
bringing you back to reality
I am part of you,
and for that I am sorry.
