In The Long Silence

 “He killed them with their love.”*
 The line from the movie 
 sickened me:
 physically – my stomach turned
 emotionally – my heart broke
 spiritually – my soul stood cold.
 Why, God…
 …why do You allow such evil?
 …why do you allow such hate? 
 A long silence,
 and then only a whisper,
 I loved them through his hate. 
 
 *The Green Mile, by Stephen King
