Family Of Lies Poem by Dave Alan Walker

Family Of Lies

Rating: 4.2


I hear of the things
That their son did
He should have been hanged
but he is free
They never told what he did do

How can one family
be so blind
Did they go and hide
Did they have the devil inside

They are lost and forgotten souls
In a family of lies
Sitting there blind
as evil slithers round their hearts and minds

Now it's time
For justice to be done
There is no escape from what was done

Somehow there is the unescapable law of compensation, so well written about by RW Emerson. IN the mean time let's pray for them.

People seldom get what they deserve. We live in a shallow world. Beautiful work, my friend.

A lie can only take care of the present, it has no future... Guilt is a burden that will eventually wear down the toughest of men... Very nicely expressed poem...

It has been said that a man of perfect thought would be a superman. I agree, But thoughts are not deeds or we would all be hanging from that tree,
