The Devil's Gaze.

Folder: 
Crime

 

 

What a betrayal

Sexual, violent abuser;

What harm to cause.

 

Loud remonstrations

To swear ones innocence.

Adds to the horror.

 

Quietly plots vengence

To harm victim further:

The sick game they play.

 

One's trust duped.

Everything so bewildering

And also so worrying.

 

To take innocence

And make shame and guilt

Pretence - you cheated.

 

Are the abused the fools

Or the foolhardy attacker?

Reckless attacker beware! 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

 

 

My disgust at the sexual and violent crimes committed against youngsters, it is such a betrayal of them.
