[hometext] => Not great poetry, just me hurting after the murder of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman. God bless.
[bodytext] => What right do we have to take a child's life
To murder innocence, turn out the light? Are we insane, have we lost our direction, That we should kill heartfelt affection. Look at their faces, and you want to cease The journey of these children as you please, Is bitterness etched in your brow so deep, That you have the right to put children to sleep? Can you not see the pain you have dealt To the parents of children, the hurt now felt? Is this all you can offer in your poor world, To take hostage and mercilessly kill girls? Even those with no God will enter in prayer, And every single adult with child will shed tear, For those poor girls who will never return, Your days must be spent in hell, forever to burn. I have never before wished a human pain, But I treat your future with total disdain, As I know that when in prison you will be, Taken in hand by inmates, killed so slowly.
