A Child's Prayer: Declaration of Death

By CRaZyDiAmOnD

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I'm hiding behind the bathroom door, Hearing them drag my brother's body across the floor I must hold back my mournfoul tears I must be quiet, they don't know i'm here One of them now stands in front of me as i quiver with fright My heart fills with anger at the very sight I'm frozen with fear and i can't make a sound He calls to the other "Look who I found" The next walks in and takes me by the hand My body is now trembling, i can hardly stand He takes me over to the bed, and has his way with me Then he stabs the knife into my neck so I can hardly breathe Now they lay me down to sleep From my throat the blood will creep My dying body writhes in pain Nothing left but my soul; i have been slain.
