because you are you

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.
