"A Dark Light"
She came in a dark rain,
Dripping and sorrowful.
Her eyes pleaded for help, but
Her lips said nothing...
She looked lost, rejected,
Like she had no one in the world
To turn to. I felt like I was
Looking at myself when I was
Younger...but she wasn't me...
...and there she was.
Only, she looked different.
Instead of the lost, rejected eyes,
I saw hardness, coldness, and Hate.
Hate burning like a hot coal...
Hate for someone who had
Deeply hurt her...
The same Hate
I had...
Not so long ago...
