The Innocenct Fall

Footsteps fall angrily upon the ground.

Moonlight shines without a sound.

Angry shouts, a scream, someone pleading

A night breeze blows, calm, so misleading.

 

An assassin slinks into the night,

he stole a life, a hope, a light.

One that wasn't his to have,

the innocent fell due to a dream gone bad.

 

Someone's wants grew out of hand,

a hungry yearning, took the life

 of another man.  

Reviews

[Vidya Bacchus]

people too often don't care about each stomping on each other for no other reason than they can. Nice poem

[Distantview123]

The innocent fall all around us, every day, somewhere in the world...for various reasons. A thought-provoking write. ~ Robert.
