Never Again

By Kati Frazier

 

 

I cannot close my eyes

and walk away this time.

No, not again.

You have caused more pain

than you can imagine,

striking hearts of men.

 

I cannot avert my face,

and pretend not to see, this time.

No, never again.

You've seeded corruption

in once pure souls.

What had you to gain?

 

I cannot turn my back

on them this time.

No, not again.

Their cries fill my ears,

empty eyes, burning hearts,

yet you feel no shame.

 

I cannot close my eyes

and walk away this time.

No, never again.

I cannot save dying souls.

I cannot save myself.

Another victim to your credit.
