Tragedies aftershock

by Jordan W   Aug 2, 2007


There are such crimes in this world,
that are seen as unforgiveable
there are such crimes in this world
that are seen as worse than murder
i have never born witness to such a crime
but someone close has
they have been left shattered and broken
wishing only for their splintered souls release.
this someone knows only pain from and torture unending
that is all her haunting memories give her
she wishes for an abrupt end to these tragedies that recount themselves,
time and time again in her head
she blocks them out days at a time.
she find ways to ease her misserable existance
through the use of drugs and alcohol
this self destructive course will soon see her lying dead in some dirty alley
her family will mourn
her friends will mourn
people she hardly knew will mourn
she will harm so many others with her destructive ways
her death will break so many more unfortunate lives
her loving boyfriend will surely follow her to her grave
