What do you think this poem is about?

bloody mess

shes left in the middle of the room,
beaten and broken,
she crys out in the night,
no one around,
to say its alright,
shes bleeding from unknown places,
she passes out in the bloody mess,
her husband gone,
never to return,
she lays there slowly bleeding out,
the baby inside her,
no longer alive,
her husband killed her and left a bloody mess,
with tears and blood stained to her face,
she gave her life,
for her husbands bloody mess

    I liked the details you gave in the poem. Very discripted. I wouldn't use the name of the title throught the poem. Just a suggestion.

    Quite scary. We all need to work and pray that such as this cease to happen.
    A good write up.
