THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR VIOLENCE

Death comes with violence, even the torment of souls,
It creates a road of destruction, leaving the abusers without any control,
It breaks up families, making personalities change,
It changes sound-minded achievers to achieving a high state.

The discrimination and the tragedies that stem from these abuse,
Transforming cheerful people to delinquent fools,
Violence creates a pathway for physical and emotional abuse,
Yet the abusers wont even take time to decrease its use.

Abusers declare that its feeling is rare and always unique,
But suddenly when caught their lives drops on a peak,
They declare it has a caressing flavor that gives a sweet romance,
But then they claim they were in an evil trance.

Violence makes the victims want to weep,
Too much of it makes them fall in a never ending sleep,
Soon their lives have sped away with time,
Yet the victims barely come across the abusers mind.

The simple thought of inflicting harm on someone you love,
Makes you lose your dignity, your pride and that persons love,
Think before you act a fool,
Change your thoughts before you lose your cool.

Persons exhibiting weaknesses are exclusively preyed upon,
Abusers take advantage even though for the victim its no fun,
The victim faces humiliation with black and blues,
Abusers enjoy telling their friends the good news.

Sit with the person and vent it out,
Assurance comes with the words coming out of your mouth,
There is no excuse for violence,
Without any doubt.
