I Will Not Kill Those Two

I will not kill the two men who raped you.
What you're asking is something I can't do.
I know that you've been through a terrifying ordeal.
But I won't murder those men for you, I will not kill.
You want me to kill them now that they're out on bail.
The District Attorney has a good case, they will go to jail.
I can understand why you want revenge but murder is going too far.
I won't commit murder because that would make me become even worse than they are.
The Police found enough DNA evidence to put them away, for them there is no escape.
Those two animals will rot in prison for the next twenty-five years for committing rape.
