Poem
Don't worry about her they said Her bark is worse than her bite But what they didn't know Is that she used her claws to fight Suddenly she changed before their eyes The abusers stopped and stared She had finally had enough She would make them hurt and scared She felt the anger boil and rise Her soul turned black as night She knew she would enjoy the chase As the abusers all took flight She would make them see The hate through her own eyes Make her the one they fear With torment like their lies She chased them through the town Down alleyways and lanes Chasing them towards the sewers The water tanks and drains She would show them helpless Show them bullied and abused She would show that people Are not play things to be used They sought the safety of the tunnels But little did they know That she would drive them forward To the place she used to go The black and swirling water Looked like a giant eye "Please make your last requests, Its time to say goodbye" She crouched down low beside them In a predatory stance "You could apologise you know, I'll give you one last chance" One girl dropped down on bended knees Sobbed and begged for life She felt her anger subside a little Took her had off the hunting knife The second girl just stared below At the swirling water deep And floods of regret and sorrow Made her collapse and start to weep The last and final girl Decided to stand her ground They faced each other solidly Neither made a sound The girl extended her hand Towards the girl that she despised And saw her breathing calm a little The blackness leave her eyes The girl took one step forward Her fingers reaching out Not knowing how this was to end Or what it was about Her fingers pushed through anger Through layers of hate and lies The nights of pain and anguish The unheard and unloved cries Her fingers touched the skin So old and thin to touch She felt the pain and sorrow And finally knew how much She stepped into the body Crouched upon the floor And felt the ice that froze her Right to the very core Together they moved to stand up To approach the other two This was when it had to end The point that they all knew Now the soul was shattered In four distinctive parts But they must learn to work together For they don't have separate hearts.
