Judgment Day

I sometimes sit and wonder-
just what it would be like,
If I could venture farther-
from the dying of the light…

An angel from the heavens-
would finally spread her wings,
Fly away from all the faces-
And learn the happiness evil brings…

Dancing ‘round the fire-
In the burning pits of hell,
She’d share all the secrets-
she swore she’d never tell…

She finally found herself-
at dark corner of the earth,
The one girl-
who thought she’d never hurt…

She stands all alone now-
With no one on her side,
Her demons have escaped-
and there’s nowhere she can hide…

She wrestles with her conscience-
through the flashing lights,
With handcuffs ‘round her wrists-
she knows it’s useless to fight…

Bail would not come early-
for she deserved no pity on her soul,
And as the bars slammed shut-
her body grew very cold…

As the judge stared down upon her-
she decided not to lie,
Now she finally realized-
He didn’t deserve to die…

This was an early one I came across (OK-DUG for- for a loved one..G*) I think...13...sounds about right...


Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

D/T -- Great stuff. My poetry was abysmal at 13. I really enjoyed this. YOu even spelled judgment right! (says someone who can't capitalize you rightly)

i used pens for chewing and as projectiles when i was thirteen...never for writing, certainly not like this. (i still can't quite write like this...)

this reminded me of the movie "the way of the gun".

it's our struggle for identity that leaves us all unknown

I like the way you think Devina, I especially
like the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs of this
wonderfully composed work of art.

Staring into the sun just makes you blind to what beauty actually exists in the sky.

Dancing ‘round the fire-
In the burning pits of hell,
She’d share all the secrets-
she swore she’d never tell…

Can relate to this...I love your poems.
Look forward to them everyday.

I'm sure Mike's comment about spelling Judgment right was a comment about something I did when I was 13, but I won't rip his throat out until I know for sure.

13....

How the hell could you write like that when you were 13??

I'm going to pretend I had just never picked up a pen at that age. *blush* It was garbled, angsty, bitter, messed up garbage then.
