A Mountain Lion, also known as a Cougar,
kills before thinking.

Nightmares come to me,
when at last I go to sleep;
Monsters I have to live with,
disguised as little Sheep.
-
At first they seem quite harmless,
I feel no threat at all;
But then their appearance changes,
their teeth turn ten feet tall.
-
Their bodies, covered in fur,
from their heads down to their toes;
Where they all do come from,
I truly do not know.
-
Their eyes are crimson red,
their claws as sharp as knives;
I curl up in a ball,
trembling with fright.
-
Finally I awaken,
sweat runs down my cheeks;
I swear I'll never sleep again,
to avoid these ghastly Beasts.

There is no greater love,
then found in Jesus Christ;
Because of His great love,
He sacrificed His life.
-
Throughout the years He lived,
He never once did sin;
He healed the Lame and Blind,
taught people to forgive.
-
No evil thought did He once think,
no foul words from His mouth;
Yet there were those mocked Him,
and those who lived in doubt.
-
He took all of our sins,
and claimed them as His own;
Upon the Cross He hung,
He felt so all alone.
-
He came to die for all of us,
to give eternal life;
He did all this to save us,
to save all of Mankind.

He went to fix her pipes,
something he'd done once before;
This time t'was not the bed,
they ended up on the floor.
-
This wasn't the second time,
he'd cheated on his Wife;
She was getting use to it,
not having a stable life.
-
What was he truly thinking,
it tore her world apart;
For though he'd done her wrong,
he still had a piece of her heart.
-
And though he might have felt bad,
his actions never showed;
She felt that it was time,
to ask this man to go.

She scrubs her olive skin,
until it starts to bleed;
She collapses in the shower,
and begins to scrub her knees.
-
No matter the time it takes,
or the Brillo Pads she's used;
She never felt quite clean enough,
just ***** and abused.
-
Her nightmare had began,
earlier that day;
When the Bug Man came on in,
and he began to spray.
-
He layed down his equipment,
and began to talk to her;
Before she even knew it,
he was ripping off her shirt.
-
She could not move an inch,
consumed with shame and fear;
When he ripped off her blue jeans,
her eyes broke out in tears.
-
When he was finished with her,
and the **** came to an end;
He packed up all his gear,
and out the door he went.
-
She sat in utter schock,
all she felt was shame;
Because she let him in,
was she the one to blame?

A Demon  was buffeting a woman,
this went on for many years;
She tried and tried to rebuke him,
through her multitude of tears.
-
He would constantly remind her,
of things that she'd done wrong;
Things of her days in the past,
it was like a really bad song.
-
Night after night,
and day after day;
He tortured her,
in so many ways.
-
She finally prayed to God,
to make the Demon stop;
But all God had to say was,
"Rebuking him's your job."

Alone and afraid,
she grabs for a knife;
Depression will end,
this twelve-year old's life.
-
She places the blade,
against her small wrist;
Makes a small incision,
she could not resist.
-
She watches the blood;
as it runs down her arm;
She just can't go on,
they've done too much harm.
-
Her mind flashes back,
to a time and a place;
When they left her defiled,
and they made her ashamed.
-
She pushes down harder,
'til the blade meets the bone;
'Tis the only way,
she could escape from her home.
