This is my feelings about a murder on the news that I am still not ready to talk about and I can't choose the right words for. The biggest pains are silent and they need to be talking about the most.
I used to sleep in pitch darkness
Now I only sleep when the sun rises
You caused that
We are talking with the girls how we gonna defend ourselves
And mom is warning me for not to have a boyfriend
We were the same age
Now we are the only ones who will grow with that pain of the women we never met
I try not to look at the news and think what he did
What he made you believe with his sickness indeed
News shows he is dead
He is death
He caused that
I see him in every guy I met
We haven't talked anything but that.
Still not enough cause people forget
Her mom won't forget.
I won't forget.
You caused that
This is my feelings about a murder on the news that I am still not ready to talk about and I can't choose the right words for. The biggest pains are silent and they need to be talked about the most.
My Review

Good morning from Spain,
Life is full of hate and horrible things but then again it is also full of beauty and love.
Your poem is so sad and it is good that you wrote out your feelings.
My only suggestion is to keep it in the same tense... for example
"I see him in every guy I met"... should be meet... I see him in every guy I meet.
Hope you are okay with my saying this?
Lisa

Thank you so much for your time and attention and suggestions. Have a great weekend
Who needs to tell ghost stories these days when we have the news to cause us horror. Or as the Beetles once sang, "I read the news today, oh boy". But the beauty here is how an artistic mind like yours can take those morbid facts and make them into art. I do love to see that. It was a deeply sad and moving. Thank you for sharing.

Your comment make me so happy ma'm, thank you so much. Wishing you the best day.
To feel such horror shows your heart and mind's goodness and as such, must always speak out, however painful to Self. That said your own feelings are being faced as you write. Life is full of hell and more, but is best to value the kindness and love floating around our planet to be shared with anticipated hope and joy. Never, never bow to the power of evil, weigh it against the strength of Good The 'oo' is the double sign of eternity

I understand the origins of this feeling. I was sweet on this girl at my High School in my freshman year...we were just virginal kids and kissing was the biggest sexual thrill we knew. I was also sweet on her best friend. They wrote me notes asking me to choose between them. So I ended up choosing her friend. That summer the girl I did not choose was murdered, raped and butchered by escaped convicts from a local prison camp. It still haunts me almost fifty years later. Her best friend became an alcoholic and ruined her own life. So I'm very empathetic to the feelings expressed here and I'm so sorry you have to go through this pain. Blessings of peace and love. F.

I try to keep saying "world is a mostly good place" it is, it really is. It's just sometimes harder other days to believe it. And when there is nothing you can do about these stuff, you try to hold on to believe goodness in people, in life. Grief is the price we pay for care and love. I can't imagine what you are going through. Hope you are doing better right now, and all the people who witnessed that.
Thank you.

I don't think people who commit such atrocities are truly "human". At least I try to tell myself that so I might be able to endure my own humanity. Bless, F.

A tragedy in the past that won't leave and that those around you won't let leave as well. Talking to a neutral party might help. This poem is haunting and dark with a feeling of being unfinished. Powerful words.

The influence that a human being can have on another human being, for better or worse is very well inked in this poem. It is so true that we can be an instrument in things that happen to somebody else. If we are not an instrument for good we should never be an instrument for evil or cause upset, sadness, pain for others to endure at our hands. People never forget, that is a fact of life and this poem gives all of the reasons what the don't. An in-depth write! Thank you for sharing...
