I am amazed that all can not see
An eye for an eye is how it should be
Sentences brief as six months to a year jail time served
Where is the justice for the battered soul of a child for they have no voice and their cries go unheard
Forever scarred inside and out with pain that will never fade away
Memories of yesterday that resurface each and every day
A time in their lives where toys and play should be how they spent their waking hours
Not trembling in fear from subjugation trapped in someones evil power
Death by dismemberment would be to lienient to me
Casteration just the beginning is how it should be
I would keep you alive for years and then
The same amount of time you enslaved will be your sentence before your lifes end
Would this make me as evil as you
For the torture and yes, it would be torture, that I would put you through
These thoughts I just keep in the back of my mind
For if I didn't know Jesus such fear I would wreck for all your kind
Merciful heaven, keep me walking in the light
For an Avenging Angel sounds just too right
But it is not meant to be because "Justice is mine so sayth the Lord"
And one day he will wipe the earth clean from all Slavers, Pedephiles, Evil Doers with his swiftly flaming sword,

I liked the rhyming in this but I think it may be easier to read if you left aligned or shortened the lines a bit, but thats just my opinion.
besides that I really enjoyed this and the message -

EQUAL IN PUNISHMENT AS IN CRIME.
An equal punishment for the crime would deter so many. Wonderfully written.

Thank you for your comment and I agree thats why sometimes I think their life should end. I guess I'll be on my knees praying for a while after this one. LOL

Slavers should be banished
to an island famished
devoid of all children
yet still they'd sin.
