Echoes of Tears ~ #freeverse

Authors Note:  This poem is based on true events in Texas.  The horrific way in which humans are being smuggled and trafficked has to stop!!!

They’re thrown, like trash

Into containers, chained

Padlocked, no air, no light

The only sound, echoes

Of tears, falling against

Metal floors, they dare not

Cry out, lest they lose

The only thing left, but life

Betrayed them, left them

Stranded, unable to survive

Flames of the Devil ~ #dark #poetry

Authors note:  I hope you’ll indulge me as I play a bit with fire (no pun intended).  My life is at a point where stress has taken a hold and will not release.  As such, I am finding more darker writings, as my mind tends to travel a bit far  😉 If you’re so inclined, please read on….Thank you.


With a flick of her finger, a wave of her hands

Sparks of the devil, ignite where she stands

Beauty is captured, in the glow of the fire

Spiraling upward, higher and higher

Conjuring heat, she‘s alive with the flames

Awaiting the fallen, whose souls she reclaims

Fear this demon, the one in which you confide

Her fire burns quickly, once your life is denied
