Malfeasance

Contributed by kmec1990 on Friday, 12th December 2014 @ 03:18:57 AM in AEST
Topic: drugabuse

Stay the course defend the honor,
of the man once called brother.
Earnestly he worked the steps,
craving back the life he left.
Reaper came, goal unattained,
Family torn, encircled by pain.

Fiction penned fact or so some say,
garners support by paparazzi essay.
A reputation now in tatters,
who he was no longer matters.
Saint turned sinner one fell swoop,
Six feet under conceals all truth.

Matriarchal supposition,
calling for complete attrition.
Angered by relentless chatter,
accusations must be shattered.
Loyalty demands support,
trying hard falling short.

Entombed memory laid to rest,
whispers to my consciousness.
Technicolor recollections
of dis-remembered imperfections;
A maniacal miscreation of
drug induced reprobations.

Getting louder can't drown out,
the growing seed of unwanted doubt.
Innocence seems forsaken,
question is the action taken.

Does one ill beget another;
Can I do this to my mother?
Problem is it's not just me,
who suffered through the misery.
Doesn't she deserve some peace,
caught between mom and niece.

this is beautiful! your first four stanzas are so brilliant, moving and
exquisite, the last two go rather in a different direction altogether-
{meaning i see two poems within} stunning writing!

hugs n' love nessa
