Sheared Daffodils

Her seconds are minutes, are hours prolonged

Searing cold caressing her nights, dreamless on edge

Chilling warmth as her days slowly passed

Centurion months compressing her spirit’s age

She dares not move her lifeless limbs

The spreading numbness a welcomed sensation

Unceasing screaming ceased, warily suppressed

An ending (please God) a much awaited vocation

 

Gone are the laughter, the smiles, the giggles

Moments long taken flight from the life she knows

Memories unadorned and estranged emotions

Leaving her a husk, a being, a life soulless

She knows that she should hate

Develop an enmity withhold a rage

For a life forsaken, a future damaged

Of broken promises, of trusts ravaged

Yet she longs for loves' return

Of calming influence, of needs unspoken

Of hugs, kisses, and spontaneous affections

An ending (please God) a closure yearns

Please God, let it be her swan song, this closure she earns..  

Closure Possibility Worth Pursuing

No. This posting is not about Nur Fitri Azmeer Nordin.

He was a pedophile caught red handed and now serving time. Second chance or otherwise, that is none of my concerns.

However, his case should also be viewed on the possibility – no matter how remote it might well be – that it could provide leads to close cases which have long haunted us.

I am talking about the cases of young children going missing and - in the case of 8-year old Nurin Jazlin (May Allah rest her soul, Amin) - murdered, where the perpetrator/s was/were never caught.

Could not our investigators liaise with UK’s Metropolitan Police to trawl the data retrieved from the local pedophile to see if any of the more than 30,000 sick images could provide leads to the unresolved cases?

Potentially, this task would require hearts that are diamond hard and stomach steely strong due to the extreme nature of the said images and videos, but what if, what if, there is the slightest of chance of a lead found.

Remote, sure, but….

 

The pedophile is a Malaysian Malay who could well have included such words that reflected his demographic origins while searching the net to fulfill his demented fantasies.

Typing the above makes me feel sick to the core.

What kind of creature would do such a thing in the first place? God forbid.

Any kind of lead that could put a closure to the hurt, the feeling of helplessness, and the anguish of parents who have lost their loved ones needs to be pursued.

It a worthy cause that should be taken.
