Take Me Poem by Theorem The Truth Serum

Take Me

Rating: 4.8


Let the innocent one go
She has actually tried to make
an impact between these two evils
that do not cease to hate each other
She loves us both
She has embraced your culture
as well as ours
I think we can learn
something from her
We can learn that
this death doesn't need
to carry on

Take me and not her
though I may be useless
cause I will not fight you
nor will I fight for
my sovereign state
We don't need
to kill each other

Take me please take me
She doesn't deserve this
maybe I do because
I didn't put a stop to it
She's tried to help
I have not
Take me

Dear Cokbod, I sense the poem may be topical re: Reporter Jill Carroll. Whether or not it is, it is well-written and brings home the costs of violence and intolerance whatever its source. All the best, Hugh
