Never
Never will my eyelids
slip into rest, uninvited
breathe on me, allowing
your mastery of evil to reign.

Never is a very long long time.
I have lived through 2 or 3 NEVERs in my past.
Love the Brevity
welcome to the deep end

Indeed a very heavy write and a heartfelt situation. Child abuse (any abuse) should be considered an act of crimes against humanity for the horrible consequences it leaves. Very good ink. J

I agree with you 100%, yes the consequences last a lifetime for the ones who live this life, I was one, and it haunts me day after day.

Excellent start for your entry into The Deep. Short, to the point and piercing.

I've noticed that every time I reread your poem, I've interpreted it differently. I personally think that's brilliant, because it allows the readers to engage with your poem and come to their own conclusions.
I've got goosebumps reading your straight-to-the-fact words, and I salute you for a job well done.
