Bandit Tears Poem by Mrs. Cynosure

Bandit Tears

Rating: 2.8


How could someone do something so horrible?
To such a sweet animal
Why would someone do that to
Innocent animals
It’s like being mean to a baby
You just don’t do that it’s wrong
He is one of the greatest gifts god gave to this earth
The light shines around the massive creature that I call my baby
My baby is in so much pain all of the time
It kills me
My baby has been mistreated many times but not by me
My baby likes carrots but loves apples just like me
Unconditional love is what he supplies me
I dream of riding him when were apart
My baby is the best thing that ever happened to me
My baby is so beautiful that he makes gorgeous look ugly

As the vets words “this horse might have to be put down if surgery fails”
Echo in my ears tears flood my eyes and my judgment breaks down
What’s right and what’s wrong start fading together
To where I cant tell the difference
The pain in my heart turns to anger and
The little devil on my shoulder is now winning

I tell bandit I will make him pay
Pay with his life soon
I’ll show him that hurting animal’s is not the answer
I jump onto bandit’s back and he takes me down to the house
I jump off and head into the house
I grab my shotgun and throw it in the back of my truck
Looking back into bandit’s pain filled eyes
I drove off in a cloud of dust
To Saginaw I went
Where I found the man responsible for my babies pain

The cock of the shotgun makes him look twice
I pointed it to his forehead and only said
“This is for bandit’s and
All the other horses you make live in pain”
Pulled the trigger and walked away
Not looking back
I drove off with tears in my eyes
Knowing that killing him wouldn’t
Make bandits or my pain go away
