Melanie C. Campos ~ MahTame

TAKE AWAY WHAT WAS DONE

Bring upon the rafters
Carry on the tears
Take me to the highest
Rid the painful of trysts

Small child, innocence
No more than three since
The awful deed took place
Among an ugly human race

Clothe her soul with trust
Wipe away the hidden dust
Abandonment is what was known
Of those near; safety was unknown

The watery deep consumes
Drowning amid filth and doom
Comfort the wounded little one
Take away what has been done
