Heaven's Reprisal

There was a brewing storm
As another act of Satan was completed
There was another merciless killing
  which took place in a woman's womb
Another addition to the assemblage
  of unborn children.

Heaven won't merely watch this time
Angry at the carnage committed against its angels,
Heaven concocted a perfect reprisal
A punishment for such transgression.

Heaven's design came to perfection
  in the form of human emotion
Heaven's wrath clawed the dim sky apart
And let its avenging child named GUILT
  fall from its cradle.

Guilt wasn't designed to bring light
  amidst the dawning darkness
But to send the mother and murderer
  toward the fire of self-damnation.

Guilt is a sword stained
  with the blood of unborn children
A sword that will cut
  the murderer's heart into chunks of raw meat.

Author notes

And the mothers who spilled
too much of their own blood
To heavenwards implored,
"Que Dieu nous pardonne!"

  • this is a really great piece. I can relate to this. I know many people are against it, but I just want to say that its hard, and they dont know what a person goes through when they have been through this..I know I would never do it again and thats for sure, I do regret it but theres always a reason behind something like this. thank you for entering and I wish you the best of luck.

    It's a pity your beliefs over took this piece. It started with a strong voice - the voice remained steady somewhat but you blasted your opinion instead of writing about it, as if it were anothers opinion. That's how this felt. Like this is how it is, not a tale of the heart or etc. I found it intense, but not in a good way.

    You choose some brilliant wording through out though.

    "Heaven's design came to perfection
    in the form of human emotion
    Heaven's wrath clawed the dim sky apart
    And let its avenging child named GUILT
    fall from its cradle.

    Guilt wasn't designed to bring light
    amidst the dawning darkness"

    I love the idea of that. Like a story, a fairytale, but you took it too far with too little feel for the words.
