A stranger walks,
Into her room,
She's laying on the bed,
Sleeping soundly,
CLICK CLICK
She wakes up startled,
Looking around the room,
She sees him.
"make a noise and you die" he says,
She looks at him terrified,
Tears running down her face,
He makes her take off her clothes,
And her body he begins to violate,
His hand on her mouth,
Her tears continue to spill out.
When his seed is spilled,
When his deed is done,
He slaps her across the cheek,
A line of blood decorates,
The side of her face.
He leaves the room,
And kills her children,
They couldn't keep quiet,
Started screaming when,
They saw the stranger,
He comes back to her room,
Points the gun at her head.
She looks at him,
Says something that,
Took him by surprise,
He accidently pulled the trigger,
And killed her,
He runs out of the house,
Nearly hitting her husband,
Coming home from work.
Her husband walks through,
His front door only to see,
Blood all over the floor,
He races to his room,
To see his true love dead,
Lying in her own blood.
Several miles away,
The stranger sits in his car,
The words of the woman,
Running through his head,
Remembering how she looked,
When she said,
"You took all that mattered,
You took my children,
You took any ounce of happiness,
I could have had,
Just kill me now,
'Cause death would be better,
Than sitting here my entire life,
Remembering this night,
Never able to stop the tears,
That will constantly flow,
Watching my husband,
Give up and leave,
Never having the chance,To watch our children,
Grow up and children of their own"
As tears ran down her face................

Poetry: Dark moments
Deferred demons drag us to hell and back
To teach us a lesson we seem to lack
To teach us a lesson of right and wrong
And
As she sat parked outside
She nearly broke down and cried
Composing herself for her early morning appointment
She wondered
by Nikou
You're gone and I'm alone,
There's no one else around,
Bitterly I'm weeping,
But no one hears the sound.
You've left without
by Shaheen Darr
Her mind prepared a questioning mode
Both judge and jury, this was to be a solitary show
Questions of what
Fade To Dark
Anger courses through my veins
And burns on the surface of my skin.
Visible to all it must surely be,
Held
