Blood and Tears

[popsadie]

Did she know
When she held that white sheet
With scarlet scars
That it meant more than mud and tears

Did she know
When she wiped the killing floor
With bloody elbows
That it meant more than mud and tears

Did she know
When she knelt down in the rain
With prayers to his father
That it meant more than mud and tears

Did she know
When she held that white sheet
With scarlet scars
That he'd wash her with blood and tears?

 

[LCK]

Wow- you create a powerful disturbing imagery. This poem seems very professional- I'm curious as to the inspirations, meanings within it or do you prefer it left to the reader's interpretation?
