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.
