My Heart Aches

My heart aches to see what mine eyes behold
While in my hearing, many horrors are told
Everywhere we go, true love needs a reveal
To remind the multitudes that hell is real

Children are molested on our daily news
Videos of their deaths bring great reviews
Evil lurks in the darkness of secret desire
As murder is the end of this burning fire

Immorality excused the villain for so long
Saying their past is the reason for their wrong
While murder continues on this rapid path
And the wicked respond in a meager laugh

Condemn the evil and embrace the good
Cry out for love as all of us should
Forsaking the lies of our ignorant ways
Imprisoning the criminal in our days

Evil must be punished to keep us secure
Protecting our children whose love is pure
And put the perverts in a life long cell
Knowing their end is an eternal hell

Aha! A wonderful poem that states the truth, that we try to hide? Hell is real for many of our children. We have to stop excusing the villains, in order to protect the victims, and the future victims. Their past is no excuse! A stand up poem, well done!
