I Hope You Suffer

I hope one day you suffer I hope one day you burn I hope one day you pay For the love you have spurned I hope you feel the torment I hope you feel jagged thorn I hope that you long to die As in sackcloth black you mourn I hope you feel less than dirt I hope you twist with such pain I hope betrayal drives you Stark raving mad and insane I hope one day you're haunted I hope in terror you scream I hope at nighttime you see A nightmare in place of dream I hope one day SOON you bleed With a spear thrust in your side Wounded for killing my love Your soul not able to hide Yes, it may be pure evil It may be a heinous crime But for my heart's rejection I hope you get to do time Yes, I hope that you suffer I hope that you wail and weep It will soothe my aching heart That you didn’t want to keep Eileen Manassian Ghali

I likes this, can hear you screaaming this at some poor unfortunate guy lol, I think you've typed 'you' instead of 'one' in the third line, see, I take in every word you write. Take care, Richard

Wow. I could clearly and distinctly feel the scorn and enmity you are conveying here. Very strong, spiteful and venomous; I can absolutely relate to these feelings. Great job articulating your malice! Kudos :)

Wow! Malice...pretty strong word. I would say it was just a hope that the person gets a taste of his own medicine. But...You call it as you see it. Thanks for dropping by.

Thanks, dear Andrea. Glad that you have saved me from being seen as a monster. I think these are natural feelings. How we deal with them is completely another matter. Hugs

Thanks, Sunshine. Always a pleasure to hear from you. Pain lets us know we are still alive and alerts us to trouble, so....I guess we can't live without it. Hugs
