Excellent poem ..
Revenge seems to be the answer for rejection for so many people. I too used to have that mindset. However, I see past pain as a wonderful lesson and compass for my future. Another finely written piece her. Yes, I like this very much!!
It's hard to contain those negative feelings sometimes, though Karma does operate, and perhaps we should leave it to its own devices. Revenge is a human frailty and only damages ourselves - or so we tell ourselves. But true, how many of us have thought - I wish I'd never met you! Perhaps that's the only way we feel we can deal with the pain? Short, sharp and to the point.
