Twisted Revenge

You'll pay for what you did...

Twisted Revenge

 

 

 

 

She slashes her arms

She slashes her wrists

 

She smiles,

She’s swimming in the wrong kind of bliss.

 

She’s careful to leave her house,

As quiet as a mouse

 

So she doesn’t disturb anyone,

Her laugh echoes through the trees;

This ought to be fun.

 

The people on the street stop and stare

But she doesn’t seem to care

 

For she has a mission

A frustrating decision

 

To keep him or to let him go?

She’s not used to loving someone so.

 

He hurt her, he really did

He made her feel useless, a mere kid.

 

Blood trails behind her as she walks

A boy across the street can’t help but gawk.

 

Who is this lady, he wonders, and what’s her deal?

But he tells no one he saw her. He keeps his lips sealed.

 

She’s almost there now, the desired destination

Once she’s there she’ll be happy, she’ll be floating in elation.

 

The look he’ll get…the play of emotions on his face

She shouldn’t want to see him hurt, she should be disgraced.

 

But she’s not

She wants so badly for him to rot.

 

Though, the bigger part of her feels sad

She clings to the feelings deep inside

That makes her crazy, mad.

 

Finally, she’s there now, she knocks, he opens the door

He’s shocked, but that’s not enough, she wants more.

She holds out her wrists, home to never ending

Bruises as far as the eye can see.

 

She looks up at him with watery eyes

She says, “Look what you’ve done to me”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

Sorry if it sucks. Or depresses you.

My emotions have been all I'm writing nowadays.

This was very powerful..it makes me feel when I slit my wrists last year...I was glad I was able to stop myself from doing that...in my opinion if someone ever did that to me I wouldn't fight back...I'd just let them keep cutting me...because it will make me feel better...I cut myself...so someone else cutting me doesn't bother me...abusing me would be a different story...I would fight back because I wouldn't be able to take it...I think this was good though...thanks for sharing...

A powerful poem...especially the last line...that notwithstanding...I wonder if you should talk to someone...help you deal with all this pain you write about...you do need emotion to write, but you also need to be breathing...maybe someone who will listen without pumping you so full of drugs you never feel anything again...
but this poem? it rocks...

Hello Kristen,

How have you been dear? You walked down an emotional path, and the path leads me to a depressing ending. The suffering is sweet.

regards,

Matthew

Wow, I'm worried about you dear. This is a good piece, but kinda scary. I love the dark pieces though, so I really do love it.

I don't know. The twisted part is the guy didn't care. Would he care when he saw the girl with the bleeding wrist at the door? A very strong poem. I believe better to torture then die. A poem with great description and story. You held me till the last word.

I love how it's not just a wonderfully descriptive peice; it also tells a story. The last verse was heartbreaking, but things don't always have a happy ending in real life, do they?

A wonderful poem!
