The Chosen Child

Missing image
Blood courses through her veins
As Evil spreads His vast wings,
Huddling His offspring together.
He wants this child like no other;
Chosen from the many observers –
Innocent, unknowing, fearful.

Curtains fall around the dimmed stage
The bloodied chalice raised in honor of Him.
Strong hands pass over her paralyzed body.
Hear their words and see their insipid faces –
And be taken to another realm of darkness.
Fear it is here she is left to die alone in agony.

Dull chanting off in the distance whirrs on.
Crumbling leaves beneath scurrying little feet
Speaks to her of comfort and life in another world –
He has left her here for now, bathing in His evil.
Taking flight into the ghostly shadows beyond,
Leaving her soiled spirit trailing in the cool mist.

    this piece really grabs the reader and as you read the author notes you realize why. i mean wow this was stunning to the point that you could tell from the begging it was based on truth and for the moments of reading this you could feel the hell.

    great write
    thanks for entering

    This was chilling, and terrifying - and fries my mind to a complete standstill to think that this is based on a true story ....

    I can't imagine what you went through, have only done a little research into satanic rituals [after seeing a vague storyline on my favourite tv show] - and well ...

    Certainly no critique here, this is your story, and part of who you are - nor could I possibly pick a 'favourite' part as nothing about this poem was pleasant..

    I can only say that I am so sorry you had to go through this...

    Thank you for sharing it with us though - and certainly providing an eye opener for some!

  • Sorry i sent the message by accident! i also suffered severe satanic abuse.....i was a product of the devil...there fore i was evil and needed to be punished to be made better. and not so 'bad' please. I think we could really help eachother.
    I am sorry for sounding so pathetic and desperate but i am! to be honest!
    I mean i have never come across anyone who has suffered the same sort and severity of abuse as i have.
    I really hope that we can become friends and talk.
    Look forward to hearing from you

  • Please, i am begging you, read some of my poems and message me. You are the first person i have met who has also been though ritual sadistic abuse.
    Please i am begging you i would love to talk to you .
    This is an amazing poem, so full of hurt, full of pain, full of the emotions that i also feel.
    Please message me.
    thank you for entering my contest. x

    This was well versed and had a chilling, dark flow to it. I think your 2nd stanza was the most stunning "Strong hands pass over her paralyzed body.
    Hear their words and see their insipid faces –
    And be taken to another realm of darkness.
    Fear it is here she is left to die alone in agony" those 4 lines were screaming at me. Well done and good luck. -T

    Awesome craft!! The darkness and evil actually spilled out with each line. I did notice in your notes that this was a true story and that makes this poem even more intense! You have crafted a masterful piece here. I enjoyed the read and the graphics as well...

    It is dark but good that is true and sort of gets into a more intropective struggle between the good and evil forces that some could say are battling for possesion of our souls.

    Sad so sad...abuse of a child is the worse evil there is.

    favorite part:

    "Taking flight into the ghostly shadows beyond,
    leaving her soiled spirit trailing in the cool mist"

    The abuser moves on but the one abused takes that pain with them throughout their lives.

    Thanks for entering

    wow this is chilling about sacrifices trhough the eyes of the sacrificee if thats a word i also get this evil child abuse thing from this poem.

    He wants this child like no other;
    Chosen from the many observers –
    Innocent, unknowing, fearful.

    evil preys on the innocent. such a stirring penning WTG good luck in the contest
