Her Demise

by Beautiful Chaos   Jan 15, 2009


Demons screaming in the head
Of the one he left for dead
Tears cascading as she bled
What will come to be?

Torment rips apart her soul
None in life can make her whole
Tossed away her self control
Chooses not to see

Razor wire held her in
Behind the walls of deadly sin
Couldn't wash it from her skin
Never, she'd be free

Didn't want to feel again
Remember who or even when
All the women, all the men
Ignoring every plea

Anger turned her heart to stone
Self loathing all she's ever known
A search for God through broken bone
Clawing through debris

Death a prayer she's holding tight
A wish to never see the light
Angels steal her soul tonight
Finally she feels free

    All in all, I liked this write.

    First off, the flow is really good, with truly unusual and interesting rhyme scheme. I rarely like the rhymes in poems, but yours worked so well, creating awesome rhythm.

    The number of 'her' throughout the poem bothered me in a few of stanzas, but that's the only critique I have for this poem.

    It's truly touching, it made me quite sad while I was reading it. It's great when the write can touch someone's emotions, and this one surely did that to me, especially the ending.
    Also, the wording is powerful from the beginning to the end. You simply painted with words, portraying memorable scenes.

    Well done.

    First of all..I'd like to say sorry for not reading your poems regularly.
    Back to the poem...what a great, catchy rhyme scheme..I've used this once but with three-lined stanzas.
    that was really good.
    The simplicity of this piece is very well expressed and it went right straight to the point.

    Death a prayer she's holding tight
    A wish to never see the light
    Angels steal her soul tonight
    Finally she feels free

    This is my fave stanza, I'm always inspired by last stanzas..so this one was really great =)
    I love your poems..I'm gonna try reading few of what I missed

    And you write on !
