    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

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
