A witness to murder…

Image by Wolfgang Staudt via Flickr

I could not stop seeing the images,

she was to face a certain doom,

I saw him with her, in the room,

her fear misplaced,

as I could almost see his face,

he had no features,

just a demonic flash,

as life and death clash,

and blood will splash,

I could even feel,

something so real,

like that cold flat steel

to her throat,

he wore madness like a coat,

it made her cry,

then she would oddly try,

mostly to reason with him,

but nothing could break,

or shake

a force that is mindless,

as a witness

I saw it first hand,

he was dominate and in command,

I saw it all,

then I closed my eyes

and sadly watch life fall.

    Being a witness to evil and not being able to do any thing about it, is a crushing emotion. Well written.

    another fine piece with fluid rhytm’s, like a death psalm, scary but inviting chilling vibrations …the scarier it becomes, I get gripped with the compulsion for more…great read man.
