Revenge

My watchful eye has seen right through,

You've lied to me, and that much is true,

I hoped and prayed you'd be there for me,

And now when you see me, your first instinct is to flee,

You talk of me when I'm not around,

But what you don't know is I've got the rebound,

Do you think this is a one-sided game?

Your blasphemous words don't put me to shame,

And yes, I know seeking revenge is wrong,

But you'll feel my wrath before too long,

Those hurtful things you've said to me,

Have been building inside, they're ready to break free,

But now I wait 'till the time is right,

You should be locked in your room full of fright,

And when this glorious moment has come,

You'll be praying for death, but you beat the war drum,

That was only my battle cry,

I'm still in this game, so you'll have to comply,

Yeah, sure, I'll play by your rule,

But I'm warning you, in the end, you'll be the fool,

Haven't you been told not to start something you can't finish?

You've bitten off more than you can chew, and my hate for you has not begun to diminish,

I catch you by surprise with me first attack,

The venom seeps in; it's like a stab in the back,

With absorbing all this, to your knees do you fall,

But I am before you, still standing tall,

My next swift move is a foot to your face,

Witnesses think I have put you in your place,

As the blood drips from your chin,

You look to me and see my grin,

That is defiantly a sign to you

That my hate inside has broken through,

And all this pain I've caused you,

Has left me only with blood on my shoe,

Now, your respect for me has come to pass,

And for my final trick, I grab a shard of glass,

I look over to see you motionless, sitting in your place,

In one quick bound, I jump to you, and carve my name onto your face,

Covered in blood you look up to see the setting sun,

Touch your hand to your face, and feel my reminder of what you have done,

Now you wake in the morning and look in the mirror, deniably gazing at my work of art,

Which is my lovely reminder to you, I'll gladly finish what you decide to start.
