The Final Night


Imagine the pain and terror of being abused by the person who is supposed to love you the most and you being powerless to stop it. That is what The Final Night is about. A nameless girl recalls her terrible last night stemming from a black childhood of abuse. In the end she finds the beginning of the peace she needs in her life.

This is a good, quick short piece. Direct and to the point, it describes the pain of the girl and her suffering. The only suggestions I have for the author to improve this work is to first to remember to check for punctuation. And second, although I think that the whole nameless idea is for effect, it does get a bit repetative.
