Actually you have the right to kill it, or more specifically the right to consent to have a medical doctor remove the fetus or embryo. You may choose not to exercise that right, but nevertheless the right exists.

A fetus may be an individual, but not even you treat it as one. You clearly declare that a fetus has the "will to live," but if the fetus were an individual shouldn't you let it decide its own will?
If you come up with an arguement that makes sense I may read your poem.

Im glad you cling to your "rights" as defined by the law of the land but there is also a higher law of conscience that you seem intent on ignoring- murder is murder- whether or not a government entity says it is "ok"
How can you say that I am "deciding will of the fetus" by letting it live? Do you mean it wishes to die? How do you know and doesnt this line of thinking mean that you are deciding the will of the fetus? (*ahem* baby- it is "ok" to call it a baby i.e. human being/child)
How about you come up with an argument that makes sense yourself and it is not *my* poem- but Im sure that things other than what you choose to hide behind dont concern you
