WARNING: This Poem Contains God-Bashing. If You Are A God-Fearing Person Then This Poem Is NOT FOR YOU. I Fully Respect Your Right To A God And Care If You Are Offended By My Poetry But I Am Entitled To My Opinion And Beliefs And Free To Express Them In A Reasonable, Respectful, And Responsible Way.



This rhyme inspired me....

"Before I Lay Me Down To Sleep

I Pray The Lord My Soul To Keep

If I Should Die Before I Wake

I Pray The Lord My Soul To Take"



...to write this.

"Before I Close My Child Eyes

I Do See Your Clever Guise

And Then, With My Child Sight,

Fear The Face and Fill With Fright



"Loss Of My Innocence

To This Lone Instance

Years Now Flying By

Tears Already Gone Dry



"Forever Scarred By The Lies

My Heart Shrivels, The Soul Dies

The Harvest Of The Forked Tongue

This Life Ended Before It Begun..."
