Rampaging

On a wild rampage I ride through the night Livid with anger Redemption in sight Set out to pillage Your heart and your soul Leave nothing standing No, nothing left whole A prisoner of war I will take you to me A slave bound and tied Not meant to be free Part of my booty You’re mine to demand You must pay your dues Obey each command I’m furious with rage My anger I’ll vent You thought me serene No, I am hell bent There must be payment For breaking my heart My revenge is sweet I’ll not spare a part My siege is complete My honor in tact I’m a fierce warrior There’s nothing I lack You thought you’d use me And then you would flee You figured it wrong Look straight into me I've come to avenge I see how you shake You poor little lamb Your stronghold I break I know your weakness And with it I snare You can’t resist me When beauty I bare With weakness exposed I bind you with might I torture you well All through the long night I play with my toy Until I tire Then toss you aside Charred by my fire Left helpless and weak You bemoan your fate While I ride away Now calm and sedate Eileen Manassian Ghali

It is hard to see if you are angry or teasing. But a nice poem, good rhyme. I like the line "No, I am hell bent." One minor note: "intact" is a single word.
