Sheltered Revenge

Left for dead,
This mind of mines feels bleak,
A struggle for power inside,
No remorse for me to seek.
 
Hurt time after time again,
But never seem to heal,
Maybe you won’t understand it,
These detrimental scars… sealed.
 
One may seem to wonder,
Have I always felt this way?
I say it’s a brokenhearted promise,
For the truth I have yet to convey.
 
Maybe not as often,
But more likely I try to be,
There’s a shadow that sits inside,
And it's the living part of me.
 
I haven’t had this feeling for long,
Too much embodied anger to even want to shout,
Straggling with every emotion,
Suspending the nerve to reach out.
 
Maybe there’s a turning point ahead,
Life will not be my demise,
Hoping someday of uplifting my spirit,
And journey to a love's surprise.
 
No longer will my eyes deceive me,
No more hatred I have left to feel,
Someday I’ll end those sorrows,
And grapple a part of that holy seal.
 
But today… emotions flow with hatred,
Soon death you will somehow meet,
And on that day of reckoning... I've realized,
Shattered revenge successfully is sweet.
