Sunday Poetry: Revenge

Revenge

Breathe in

Blink away the tears

Show me all the pain you have

Let me be your fear

Take life

The best there is

I choose to let you live this way

He gives me all that’s his

Catch up

Tell me what you weep

Don’t you know it’s all a game?

I never lose my sleep

Your soul

It’s all I want

After what you’ve done to me

Let me be this blunt

You shiver

And so you should

I’m coming for your heart my dear

Like I said I would

A caress

A friendly glance

Has led you both to this moment

Now let us dance

Why now?

Didn’t you know?

I always take what’s mine

I never say for show

You lie

Just like before

Only this time I put you there

With him

On his bedroom floor
