Blood red rubies
Shimmer in the dark
A child’s lost hope
Never to be found
Bright colors of dawn
Seen with blind eyes
The whole world sinks
Into the abyss
A mother screams
As her child dies in vain
The blood red veil
Becomes a our restrain
An hour of no honor
Comes quicker than death
Such pain inflicted
With an iron whip
Behind gates of steel
I stand alone
No one to rescue me
From this torment
Waiting to be free
From the shackles
Which bind me

Such tears in a time of need, is not a reasonable term of sanity. It is but a reasonable term of human imperection. Normal is what you make it.

Good poem.  Nice and dark.

a trickle of music from a well
let it spill and roar like hell!
