Q: My Poem about teen pregnancy

Can you guys please read and rate my poem and reflect a bit on it. Thanks a lot in advance.

"
She cries,
I can't help her
She's hungy
I can't feed her
She needs medication
And I cannot treat her
No money, No support
I don't think I can keep her
Another statistic they say
Another teen who's lost her way.
But I love my daughter
If only there was another way
To provide to love, care, and support she needed
I should have been the teen that heeded
Now I am stuck and alone
My parents say I can't come home
(1/3 girls aged 13-19 get pregnant each year)
Man that line hits home
I know I could have prevented this
A short moment in bliss,
That ended with Chris <- my daughter
My parents should have taught me more
because Chris is more than I ever asked for

I regret being a teen mom I should have waited, so I could have been able to provide for my daughter

I think it is good, many teen moms have different views about being a parent but it sounds like it is telling what you are really feeling I loved it.

I really like your poem. I'm sure there are a lot of teen mothers that feel that way. Unfortunately some young moms don't have any family or friends for support. It takes a lot to raise a child and you obviously know that. I didn't get the feeling that you don't want your baby or don't love her. It makes me feel that you do love her and wish you could give her more. My mother didn't have a lot of money or material things to give me growing up but I felt unconditionally loved. She was always there for me and put me first. That is a true mother. That poem had me crying.

I really liked the honesty in your poem. Can I ask you why you kept the pregnancy, and then why you didn't give her up for adoption when she was born? If either or both of these questions are too personal, I'll understand.

Having a baby is truly difficult... I'm four months pregnant and this is not my first pregnancy!! I don't regret about to become a teen mom but I regret the night everything happened. I already love my child and i'm only 16. I've miscarried twice before already and miscarrying is much harder than actually having the baby! Yeah, I understand how your parents don't support you. My parents right now don't know i'm pregnant and i'm barely showing, you can't even tell. I'm upset with myself because I know that i'll be kicked out when I start showing at around 19 weeks. I'm 17 weeks now. I don't like it, i'm not proud of myself, I'm having a girl though and i'm naming her Lianna! I really liked your poem it was wonderful and I wish the best for you and your baby.
