[title] => How Could She - Dedicated to Little Zeke

[hometext] => I posted this poem a few months ago, about a terrible tragedy that happened within my family, since then a few things have come to light, i no longer feel anger or hatred at the woman I wrote this poem about, its all explained at the end of the poem.
[bodytext] => I'm trying to say something Words can not express Because there are no words That make sense of this horrible mess What would make a mother Do that to those innocent kids They had their whole lives ahead of them A little girl and boy, just 4 and 6 In a drug fuelled raging frenzy She claimed two beautiful lives This cold hearted killer Didn't deserve the unconditional love that comes from a child Its happened many times before We'v all heard of these tragedies But this time it feels different Because it affects people close to me You see, my sisters partner Was the father of the 6yr old boy Who's life was cruelly taken away Like he was nothing but a toy So what do I say to the father Who is daddy to my unborn neice His son and her big brother May he rest in peace I try not to think about What was going through their little heads Mummy why are you doing this We love you, why do you want me dead Everytime I think about it It makes me feel physically sick That sick and twisted being Should've been her throat that got slit DEDICATED TO LIL ZEKE. ***I recall a line from my favourite movie, The Crow. It goes... "Mother is the name for God on the lips and hearts of all children". It's so true and so sad, so many people in the world dont deserve the gift of having a child. My sisters partner had a 6 yr old child to an ex-partner. His ex also had a child from another relationship, a little girl who was three. This woman brutally murdered both children then proceeded to try to kill herself but she did not succeed before police arrived. She had been drunk and taking drugs. For a long time I have despised this woman, what she did is and should be unfathomable. Now, tho i can not forgive or forget what she has done, I feel truly sorry for her. As it turns out she had a serious mental illness that authorities new about, god only knows why the children where left in her care. Just 2 days before she comitted these atrocities she had begun to hear évil voices'that told her to do horrible things, she was also suffering from psychotic episodes, she new she and the people around her were in danger, she went to the mental health clinic to see her counsellor and said that she needed to be hospitalised but she was turned away, her friends did the same, telling mental health authorities that she posed a dangerous threat to herself and those around her but still nothing was done. It is truly disgusting how the system has failed her, her children and their families. it shouldnt have come this far, the authorities had plenty oppurtunity to remove those kids from danger.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
