Lover's Walk

by chicaaf   Jul 3, 2008


Dangerous minds
Hidden behind reckless lies
That justify the crimes
They are committing at night

As the sun goes down
People's bad habits show up
Evil-doer come out
When God should be around

Boys getting beat up
Girls getting raped
All for money or pleasure
Or just cause of wrathful hate

Tomorrow you'll hear on the news
About little Isa, violated and killed
After suffering hours of pain and abuse
Her destination's fulfilled

Her tormentor, a bank assistant
Whose parents are proud
By day a pleasant person
By night secret addictions burst out

A few blocks away Ronnie walks up the street
Instead of meeting his girl
He comes across some confirmed drunkard
against whom he just can not compete

For being displeasing in their eyes
He has to pay a high price
They kick him and beat him
Till they switch off his lights

Now Ronnie remembers this night like no other
Diagnostic: cerebral hemorrhage
Which means he cannot see daylight no longer
He will never again see the world in its colors
But what he fears the most is
To never again feel the gentle touch of his lover
