Notches

I sit and I watch,
And I add a notch.

One notch for one wrong,
And I hope it's not all wrong.

I hope that it all has a reason,
But not for long because there's another treason,

I sit and I Watch,
And I add a notch.

When will it end?
When will the evil bend?

I can't keep thinking of this,
Because evil just hissed.

I sit and I watch,
And I add a notch.

How can I count all of them?
How can evil have so many black-gems?

I must stop trying,
Because people keep dying.

I sit and I watch,
And I add a notch...just a few more.
