    A Victim's Rage

    The cries of innocence
    -unheard?
    Vicious cycle
    turned inward;
    a mirage of self-defeat.
    Taken from
    a child's embrace;
    Damn this soul,
    ignorance can't excuse,
    blind to the existence-
    darkness ensued.
    The clock's hand
    turns with a hammer's beat;
    how my heart entreats:
    stop this solitude,
    induced pain;
    endless nights
    filled with tears in vain:
    for this dream
    always ends the same.
    Whispers carried
    upon the wind,
    "must stop him!
    must kill him!"
    Unsheathe the blade-
    Heaven forgive,
    the hatred looms
    my soul enshrouds.
    With one quick slash,
    death much to quick,
    to atone-
    to repay;
    his death is little
    for him to pay.
    Rip his heart out,
    destroy his mind-
    erase this blacked soul.
    Eternity
    to burn and purge,
    a heart of evil-
    a hearth so cold.
    But tell me-
    can my sin be forgiven?

    'death much to quick' did you mean 'too quick'? I refuse to commit the sin that would be justified in my situation because two wrongs don't make a right in my opinion. I would be honored if you'd read my latest poem. I wrote it to my mother. It's called "Unforgivable..." You will then know that I know from whence you came.

    Great description of the inevitable satisfaction a victim might need. I see rage but it looks adolescent. It is calm, quiet, and to the point. It is not a spectacle as some adults might make it. You know, brains splattered on a wall and all. Sigh, vengeance.

    How anyone can bring harm to child is beyond reasoning. But it's happens more and more each day. I ask God, many times in my life, how does he forgive this person. I just half to believe he has good reasons for this as he does for everything else in life. Thank you for this powerful poem, well written, Mareann

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
