Why can’t it just be okay

Routine
Mundane
Another medical procedure that we accept
Can sometimes be necessary,
Life saving,
Difficult -
But not always.
Not every end to a pregnancy is sad
Some pregnancies end in joyous birth
Some end with grief for what could have been
Some end with a sigh of relief
Freedom to be a parent or not to be
Freedom to choose one's path in life
Abortion is an act of love
Abortion is common
Safe
Should not be an undue burden to access
Why can't it just be okay
The story of abortion is made to be
Black and white
Good vs evil
When it is simply a part of life
Part of a person's reproductive journey
Part of being a human
Abortion is an act of love
Why can't it just be okay
