Trial

Do you swear by God to tell the truth

Or plead you innocence in your youth?

Look and listen, learn your lesson

Speak the truth in your confession!

Were the cries you caused predicted?

Do you feel the pain inflicted?

I must know if you undertsand

That's blood that's wet upon your hands?

Or could you look at them and tell

You 'loved' the one you put through hell?

That you thought the life she lived each day

Was up to you to take away

No guilt yet? Well, watch this space

And with that said, I rest my case.
