I hated you, and hatred is a poison
one that flowed through my veins
it was you, who killed me
and in my death we created life
your lies filled my head
ones that I loved to believe
but believing is seeing
and I was blinded...
you walked around with foolish pride
gloating your family's name.
a name that fell from my lips
as tender as our first kiss
I was afraid
the pink plus sign glaring at me.
I just knew you would understand
I just knew you would care.
but,there is no shame in not knowing;
the shame lies in not finding out.
I held it in for weeks
a secret dying to be told
it was raining
cool drops hitting my face
the hottest love has the coldest end
and ours ended in a blizzard.
whore, liar, and worthless
was the words you screamed
I replayed them
over and over again
I hated you,
I hated myself
with my hand warm against my stomach
I watched you walk away
leaving me to raise a child alone
without any help from you
and I never really got the chance
to thank you.......

This is intense.
I think this is the start of a really great poem. You could take it a lot further, really going into the emotion of the entire situation, following the same timeline.
All I have left to say is, screw him. You're a much better person than he'll ever be. -
Thank you for your entry, good luck in my contest, Josie
