Mother of powerful intercession ever willing to hear ,

I come and kneel down before you and I know you are always near ,

I ask of you a favour because we don’t know what else to do ,

For you are the recourse we turn to in all we are going through  .

 

Mother of powerful intercession and our advocate too

Speak for those have suffered in relationships by people who  

mistreated and abused their partners until they were forced to leave

and to begin again forgetting all  the things that make them grieve   .    

 

Mother of powerful intercession  bring justice and mercy

on those who have done no wrong apart from trusting innocently  

people who were full of empty promises and selfish ideas ,

may God above bring a swift judgement and put an end to this case .

  

Mother of powerful intercession bring the truth into play

and any proof that can be considered relevant on the day

and defend and protect the legal rights of those who have a claim

on what is rightfully theirs so they can rebuild their lives again .

I love the feelings in your poetry, you are so often on the side of those who are hurt, wishing them justice in a better world. Although I often like poetry that rhymes I wonder rhyming suits this poem to its best advantage. The appeal to the Mother of powerful intercession creates a powerful rhythm and this could perhaps drive the poem forward unrhymed.

I hope Paul you do not find my comment annoying, I am commenting because I think the poem has strength. The phrase 'empty promises and selfish ideas' is particularly good. What would make a person behave towards someone close to them in an empty and selfish way? Perhaps that is a question for a fresh poem.

Thanks Elsie your comments are very welcome . Unfortunately there are bad people in the world who use those closest to them for their own means , getting what they want and taking more and more  until they have taken it all . Even when there is nothing left they ask for more and they will never be satisfied . They can never change . They are full of insecurities . They have forgotten what sacrafice is and cannot give in a relationaship . There is nothing anyone can ever do to make them happy . They are their own worst enemy . They cannot love . It is those who have been hurt by their abuse that need help and support and justice .
