Regret too late

Regret too late

A Poem by Midnight_Mask
"

Its about a young woman accused of harming her boyfriend and lead to belive she killed him. Knowing her innocents she fights for her freedom at court.

"

My last hours are flying past

Slamming thoughts turn into dust

As her eyes narrow me down

Stabbing my delicate frame and trembling knees

 

This will be my faint for my miss use of my personalities

To be criticized and caste away by broken eyes

Followed by the killing stares

Then the increasing breaths

 

As I walk this damaged path

Up to a stool where they’ll question my past

Actions that I may regret

Memories of blood stained air

 

Is this what I’ve been called upon?

Have I been caught by a midnight watcher?

And has everyone found out about my one last regret?

I’m getting ahead of myself and I can’t seem to shake those angered filled glares

 

Maybe it’s best to lower my eyes

Evaded the disturbed stares

My building hope soon evaporates

Then I’m left alone and scared

 

This moment right here right now

Calls upon an unwanted memory

As if to summon it and burn me in its blood

I didn’t mean to be there at such a late hour

 

But as my doubts turn into rage

How can they just accuse me without any case?

Is this what his ghostly frame placed?

To have me jailed for trashing him a month before we’re made one

 

But I couldn’t see myself being dragged up to the alter

To say those poetically beautiful words ‘I do’

Now I see how much he loved me

However that was never the case!

 

He abused me and my family and hurt our pride

Even now, after him we’re demoralised

Robbed and stabbed in the back

Where did our self-respect lack?

 

Now I’ve just shown many reasons for me to attack

Changing my frame from shock and terror

Into the one who held the blade?

Or even pushed him into the acuminous shade

 

It’s only been nine hours after I ran

From a house that hosted a man

Now dead for all the wrong mistakes

I’m the one who will take the blame

 

“Oh do please state your ‘innocents’” the judge now calls

Silencing the echoes that followed her hail

I’m repulsed to actually see what they believed

“I didn’t kill him, honestly!”

 

But now after shouting out in a cry

They’ll dismiss my short out bursting try

As if it was just an attempt

To claw my way out of this dilemma

 

But now tears shatter my face

Shock and horror as they mumble I’m insane

I just wanted to pick up my things

Go live with different company

 

No-one cares, no-one listens

Cluttered conversations turn into abominations

Nuisances, just chatter for the fun

Their not the ones their shaming in torment

 

Drowning my pride bit by bit

Until I’m in high tide

No way out

The current that tosses with screams and shouts

 

There not the ones who’ll have life imprisonment

Or to be killed off for a false accuse

Just the thought that I’ll lose

More then just my life, my life later on like husband and wife

 

How can I give in now?

As I’m towed away by tough arms

Locked around mine

As I toss and turn for freedom

 

A sudden slam vibrated through the hall

Along with a shout “Next!” was all

I caught a glimpse of a familiar face

Scared from the knife-edged shade
