Revenge

Revenge is an evil thing

A shard of glass can rip through flesh,

A broken heart can kill the rest

Revenge is a sickly game

Each path can throw you into the maze

The twisting jungle can chase down your dreams

Make you fall from the sky with a flash and gleam

Who is she?

So full of anger?

................................................................................

A lipstick lays forgotten

On the floor in the bathroom

The cabinet filled with pills

With things that have the ability to murder

Overdose is an evil thing

Revenge slides into the pocket of guilt

Collapsing on the pavement at midnight

No one to watch his death

Revenge can destroy a person's life

The cigarette buds build up in the house of a girl

Who was waiting for her lover to come home

But he never came.

The banging of the judge's gavel

After he dismisses the murder of Gavin Blue

No more lawyers to call trial

No more justice to be handed out

She ran to her room

A flurry of tears

Marijuana hidden under her bed

Ready for when she was in distress

The smoke pours from the chimney

But this time it's not the fire from the wood

It's the fire that was in the girl

She burned letters and grabbed a cigar

Revenge is a deadly thing.

The house lay silent

The girl without moving

Heroin soon forgot her name.
