Welcome to the first (and possably only) post of "Passing From Yesterday." I was asked to post something so im gonna do just that, im not sure how much this will be updated (if at all) but just go with it.
This is the first "story" that ive written. Im gonna warn you,,,the ending is kinda bad, il ltry and think of a better one, but here i present "Torn From Innocence"
In a cold dark room
In a cabin away from home
There sits a line little boy
Depressed sad and alone
He is a picture of innocence
A child of hopes and dreams
But his hopes burned to ashes
And his eyes lost their gleams
He sits in a corner
In a dirty old chair
He faces the wall
Fearing to face whats out there
The boy ran to this cabin
An abandoned wood shack
Running from his home
To the woods, frightful and black
He is surrounded by voices
Made by creatures of this place
His sobbing muffled only
By the hands covering his face
His small mind seeks answers
They all begin with “why”
“Why did daddy leave?”
“Why did mommy die?
Few memories of his father
For he was only 3
When his father made the choice
That he was going to flee.
The poor little boy
Knows not why his father runs
His mother never told him,
He solved his woes with guns
His father, a murder
Who fled from all his fear
Still has a place for his son
He holds him close and dear
Now just 4 years later
he bellows a horrable cry
it was, at his feet,
that he watched his mother die
At his home he sat
As he watched his mother sewing
The both felt a chill
Of a cold wind blowing
Suddenly a stranger
Appeared standing in the hall
With 2 men behind him
Dark scary and tall
In a fearce harsh voice
They made their demands
His mother stood brave
Clutching his son’s hands
They threatened to hurt her
And soon she would be dead,
If she was not quiet
And refused what they said
They tore through the home
A small modest place
The mother clutched the boy
Hiding fear from her face
They finished their looting
But still lusted for more
“Give us more money,
Or we’ll kill you you whore”
“I have nothing left
You took every last position”
“I say she’s lying to us,
We should teach her a lesson”
Forced to let go
They pulled her from her son
They began to ravage her
One by one by one
they boy stood in fear
As the med started to beat her
He tried to fight them
But no way a boy could save her
She fell to the floor
With a wound from a knife
“I love you son”
And she lost he grip on life
The men advanced on his
They still wanted more
So the boy began to run
Out the open door
They taunted the boy
Not chasing after
The boy, unaware,
Ran faster and faster
So now he sits
In a cold dark shack
That was once living quarters
Years and years back
He Sits all alone
His sadness ceasing never
When he hears a voice outside
“Son, this is your father
And those men are gone forever…”
