Act of lust

By Grannyrosie

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

ACT OF LUST Pulses roaring, senses full of fear, Scent of danger, drawing near. Feet run in rapid time with heart, Heavy breathing, flushes start. Exit just around the next bend. Urgency, panic messages send. Darkness invading, drawing evil in, Ahead, a light, so weak and dim. Faster feet, urging you on in speed, Escape the pawing, maniacal greed. Coarse, evil laughter in my ear, Pray for salvation, midst each tear. Escape impossible, thrown to the ground, Fear blinding, muting, voice has no sound. Vulnerable to the plunder of this evil mind, No escape, no help, no freedom find. Raped, savaged, beaten beyond despair, Find voice to cry, yet no-one there. Thrown as a broken doll, used, abused. Through blood, sorrow and tears, so confused. Tell no-one, keep the shame deep within, Transfer of guilt to self, this nameless sin. Explain away bruising to enquiring minds, No escape, no peace, this damaged soul finds. Time now to shed the ghosts of brutality, Release the anger, disrespect for me. Forgive the sin committed by man’s evil lust, Renew this spirit, find new life, new trust Written December 17th, 2001 © on Dec 16 2001 04:50 PM PST, Patricia Rosenberg   0 • 9
