Unsung Tears

Ignorant, she walk As stealth shadows stalk Pure was her name Misfortune, her mane Then out of midnight's light Comes the wicked of the night Her desperate struggles Are flooded with pain Lost in night rain The echoes of disdain Her innocent fears And unsung tears Masked in raindrops Her womanhood scathed Glowing dreams quenched As her body lay drenched Cold, yet hot Till all hope is lost Passions unwanted Pleas neglected Blood sheared Whereas evil cheered O poor soul, have mercy I pray

Very good work depicting a horror crime against womanhood..The emotion of the work is very apt to the feelings of one so destroyed..Thanks for the visit to my page..Welcome to soup..Sara
