Sweet Revenge

You wanted her pretty and submissive,  
But she was wild and followed her  
Own rules. She lived for the danger,  
But to you she is sweet and addictive.  
It is too bad that she was truly never  
Yours because you were only a traitor.  
   
Little did you know that all she wanted  
Was revenge and she was dressed for    
The kill, never stopping until she gets  
What her heart wants. She outsmarted  
You in the games and in the endless war.  
You think that she would have regrets,  
   
But she has none. She stole your key  
To your heart, never to be seen again  
As she is driving down the road and out of    
Town. Today you might feel freedom,
But tomorrow you will feel her in the rain  
And when you least expect her deep love    
   
To seep through the cracks or crevices  
She left behind for someone else to    
Replace. You may say it is sabotage,  
What she did to you, but selflessness    
Is what she gave everyone and you  
Took advantage of the goodness lodged  
   
In her heart. It may be cold or calculated,    
But her revenge mode is activated.
