Eternal Wish
She wished the cleansing water could wash away her sins,
Carved deep into her soul.
Erase her past.
Just ...forget.
Take away the pain
The loss of so much of her life,
The misery she'd brought to others,
The deaths... murder,
The sensation of elation watching the life drain from her victim,
The feeling of triumph at the sight of all that blood...
On her hands.
She let the water wash away the blood she saw on her hands.
It was still there.
It would always be there.
No one saw Sarah weep.
The water washed away her tears too.
The End
