I don't want to be here,
In this, with you,
with It.
It lives inside of me
Using my life,
Breathing my air,
Listening to my thoughts,
Using my life!

I'd rather be alone
without you.
Without It.

A friend who had a pregnancy scare inspired me to write this. She was really scared and absolutely did not want to have a kid.
Fear makes people angry I guess.

This poem is great my only advice would be to take out "using my life" the first time it was used and keeping the second time. The way you described the baby as it was also cool, because if i was in your friends situation i feel like i would feel the exact same way. The ending is also very good

once life gets harsh/hard, hold your head strong because that's all you can do

its simple and short and staight to the point. i like it:) but you should put more description about the situation of how she would feel than a simple frustration. but i like how you were inspired by your friend's preggency. well done...keep it up
