revenge

You will regret this. 

You will all regret never loving me enough 

when you had the chance

she laughs. 

Hideous, horrendous, 

beautiful 

laughter 

echoes back at her. 

And she eats it up

like a starving prisoner

on death row. 

Have you ever felt

like you don't belong anywhere?
Like maybe you'd be better off

dead?

Like the world's moving 

but you're staying still?
He chuckles a little bit.

No, 

he doesn't understand.

No one ever does.

She sinks her teeth 

into his flesh.

It's for the best,

she tells herself.

This way

he can stay innocent.

He will never feel the pain

she feels.

The whole time

there's another face she's seeing

before her eyes.

Another face that deserves this more.

Someone she would like to

forget.

But only after he got

punished.

Now, it's time.

She straightens her back

and kicks the front door down.

It's time.

Fear fills those brown eyes.

The very eyes that have 

haunted

her every

nightmare.

In that night the world ended.

But she got her 

revenge

and that's all that really

matters.

deep is the one word that comes to my mind as well as revenge. i like how in the poem it explains how you feel and that the person is tired of the torment and decided to revenge. and that after what the person does, they are haunted by the eyes of the boy, so it tells me that the revenge has consequences that the person realizes but doesnt care because they think its worth the revenge.
