Revenge

Again today I’m still here,
Waiting for you to see,
Waiting for you to get near,
Just a step too close to me.

I remember the night,
You ran me through with a knife,
It was such a gruesome sight,
When you took my life.

I was the girl down the street,
Daughter to your neighbor,
We never really had the pleasure to meet,
So I didn’t see the intentions you harbored.

You caught me while I walked home,
Took me to a field and covered my mouth,
Mommy always told me, I really should’ve known,
But I’m nothing but a cut up corpse now.

I press my hand to the glass,
Look through the window at you,
Mumbling no-no words, like ‘Ass’,
Watching all the things you do.

You are so dirty and touched me in a place,
Took me to the darkness and cut me up,
And laughed at my panic struck face,
Then let your hands wander and touch.

I told you I’d tell mom and dad and the cop,
But you didn’t like that so you punched me,
Hit me twice with a loud POP POP,
And then my eyes closed and I couldn’t see.

Threw me into a bag and then into the river,
Walked away as if nothing happened and continued living.
On occasion you’d look at my sister and you’d shiver,
As if all the fear erupted from me wasn’t enough given.

You step out of your house and the man who was in the shadow,
He jumps out and stabs you roughly and takes your wallet.
I laugh softly, cold, empty and hollow,
At the pure irony of it.

I didn’t intend for you to die like that, Mister.
I was gonna crush you with something, like a big shelf.
But when you touched my sister,
I guess you beckoned Karma and just did this to yourself.

Your glassy eyes seem to focus on my figure,
As you drift down to the fiery pits of Hell,
And you mumble weakly, ‘It’s her’.
And I just smile at you as I’m dragged into fire as well.
