Vengeance

Blood in my site as I go for the kill Better calm down and take another pill All the rage surges through as I lose control The minute I black-out I could lose my soul Negative reinforcement saturates my mind Leaving all the crushed up pieces behind Destruction reigns upon me, seeking to destroy it all I know once I’m done you can only want to fall Left in the wake you will only feel the burn Just the idea of it can make your stomach churn The image of taking you down sends pleasure to my brain Best not to mess with me for this terror I will reign I have you in my vision and I keep a close eye When you try to sneak away I’ll say, “nice try…” I’ve got you in my clutches, I’ve got you where I want I’ve trapped you in a frenzy, a place where I can taunt Don’t you try to run, don’t you try to hide This revenge is bitter sweet and no one is on your side You make my bones ache and my body squirm I would love to knock you dead and make your life short term I can hardly believe you have any life at all I know that you can't achieve anything more than a cat call Pathetic and pointless you are, just wait and see I laugh in this ugly face of yours because you are nothing compared to me The moment is righteous the minute I strike Time slows down to bask in the glory The time is now for something to like The scene is oh so gory I don’t have to make it up by submitting to a penance I’m just glad I have made you suffer with my vengeance Written on July 19th, 2016 and posted on August 22nd, 2016.

Vengeance might make one "fufilled", but just for a short while...
