The troubles.
I see her passing most days,
With her long black hair and rosy cheeks.
That worried look is always on her fresh face
And no wonder.
She has to pass this corner gauntlet
Five days a week.
Little does she know my heart skips
And breaks all at the same time
Whenever I see her.
I spit forth my bitterness of hate
As hot red flushes of rage and guilt
Attack both my cheeks.
“Catholic shite!
It is all over in moments
Rather than minutes.
If only she could understand
I hate her faith not her.
If she only knew.
I look forward to tomorrow ,
So I can speak to her again.
How easy for hate and ignorance to spread poison. Thx for sharing.
