The evil men do

I hope this doesn't trigger anyone

Two in the house, kids fast asleep. 

He sits on the bed while she tries to 

sleep. His mind full of malice, evil 

hands touch. He'll finally take what's 

denied him so much. Up her body, 

over and in. She tosses slightly not to 

give in. His subtle advances seeps into 

her dreams, invading her peace and 

beautiful scenes. She awakens to see 

his Savage eyes, deep inside her, on he 

lies. The fight and cries to his deaf ears, 

his  blind eyes can't see her tears. 

Who is this man she thought she knew. 

Doing the evil that men do

One of history's worst evils - and believe me, repeated now during the pandemic because of God knows what. Do these creatures remember their mothers and the pain they endured in giving birth?

Such a raw post, Tina, finely created - from truth.

Thank you for reading

amazing way to shed light on a serious problem. the last line really brought the poem together, thank you for sharing

[Tina]

Your welcome

I'd say it's Lucifer, still bitter about that failed coup d'etat.

[Franky]

This is about a disgusting situation. How could he enjoy such abuse? Is he just angry? Why do that? Sorry...

[Poetic Beauty]

Unfortunately some men think this is their right when it is not. They do what they want invading and raping their partner because they can. It is not acceptable. It’s a sad and cruel world we live in sometimes

[Chris Shaw]

Yes it:s hard to stomach that some partnerships are like this. The male of the species thinking he is entitled to do what he wants when he wants. Hateful behaviour. A tough subject to tackle Tina, but it:"s going on and we shouldn't pretend otherwise. Powerful write.

[Tina]

Thank you . Yes it's a terrible thing.

[Chris Shaw]

Good to see some new poems from you.

[Carlos Lorenzo Estrada]

This is difficult and emotionally powerful poem. I admire the courage it takes to broach such a subject and to speak with such truth and conviction. It takes a courageous strong heart. Thank you for sharing.

[Tina]

Your welcome . Thanks for reading

Geez this is rough. To have to live that way is a dream killer. For better or worse wasn't supposed to include anything like that. I'm sure there are many women who can relate too.

Good expression in this, Tina.

[Tina]

Thank you for reading I was worried this might be too touchy on the subject

[Relic]

Tina, no. I've read many poems here and talked to many woman who were raped. It's nothing that hasn't been talked about before and you wrote this well.

[Tina]

Thank you , l speak from simular experience.

[Relic]

Some men can't control their impulses. Ask Ted Bundy.

[Tina]

Eek, I saw a movie about him

[Relic]

Yeah, he was a pretty awful guy. I read a lot about serial killers. They're all different in some way but still have the compulsion to kill. I'm always curious as to why but don't always really find out.
