Fruit of Love

Yes, you grew in my womb
Yes, I carried you full-term 
But did I really want you? 
Are you a fruit of my love? 

Were you born for security 
Or societal pressure 
Acceptance, force, need, 
Everything else but love 

You are here, and alive 
My blood, my kid, 
You are his child too 
His sperm, his kind 

What does it make me 
If I can't muster the strength to love you 
You are not a fruit of love 
Your existence was not my choice
