Poem -
Raped
Crumpled flowers
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β ruffled bed
Shattered vases
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β scattered dreams
Love yet to be won
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β bliss yet to be recovered
Strong smell of false promises
one finger bleeding in a corner
Justice killed
Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β Β the wind ruffling the scarlet curtains
A deflated world map lying
on the crumpled flowers, on the ruffled bed.
The knife has slowly slipped from her hand. It has fallen and
with the strokes of the light, the blade has gathered some life
in his glutinous hand. Enough to make him divide death.

Wow, I really love this. It screams extraordinary talent, and each line flows perfectly into the next. I can't wait to read more of your work, and welcome to cosmo
Amber, thank you for the kind words :) I hope to read your poems too! I am pleased to be here.
It goes without saying, surely, that this poem is powerful.
What makes it extraordinary is the employment of pointed, but somewhat oblique, imagery to fill in the spaces around the central, devastating, idea...and then stare accusingly at it.
Magnificent!
Welcome.
