Innocent Child

by melly xx   Oct 27, 2006


Innocent child,
Draped in rags,
Covered in filth,
She stands there silently.
A voice hauntingly familiar
Whispers all around her
She has no tears left to cry
She has nothing left;
The agony of a broken soul
She dies slowly
So painfully
Yet shes still
Screaming with whats left of her voice
Nothing, empty, gone.
Her lungs, poisoned
She can't breathe
She can't see
It spreads through her fragile skin
Her bones cringe
And her withered body
Can't take the pain anymore
The only way to end it
She needed to do it.
She followed the path in front of her
The path toward the light.

    "Whispers all around here"

    ~ "her" instead of "here"... If that's what was intended... I think "her" would flow better.

    I honestly have to say that you have wowed me with the ending of this poem. The poem was so dark and full of sadness, and in the end, she finds the light... It's very insightful... unique as well.

    Good job on this poem. I liked it a great deal. Keep writing, you have great potential! 5/5
