Sweet Revenge

I have emerged from the depths of hell,
To seek out sweet revenge,
I have walked through hellfire and back,
To face the darker side of me.

My mind is clouded by painful memories,
I have endured those very flames of hell,
I can still hear the painful cries of my significant others,
As they became victims, their souls perished in flames.
Despite my struggle to recover their souls,
I myself was too late.
I watched them fall before my eyes, under the rubble of a residence I once called home.
As they fell so did tears of pain and loss,
As I watched my soul, my life, my loved ones, perish and die before my eyes by the wrath of hellfire itself.
From that day on, I fell prisoner of cruel emotions and I had my darker side to blame.
My older sibling, my other half,
Through jealously and hate he alone corrupted our lives and our souls.

Ever since that moment my life has faltered, became its own secret,
I’ve hidden me from the world,
I have taken the taunting, the lies and deceit
I have taken it all to heart.
Not a word did I speak,
Nor did I let a tear fall,
Through my troubled years I learnt to ignore.
But anger and desire of revenge arose from my world of darkness and hurt.
It breached my very soul,
A voice in my mind was urging me on, “seek revenge, seek sweet innocent revenge”

My body was spent from the hardships of depression,
I was forever falling.
Thought I was lost, I could not redeem who or what I was,
But still a voice whispered words of comfort in the bleak depths of my lonely
mind, “Seek revenge, seek sweet innocent revenge.”

Beneath all the suffering and pain, a desire rushed through me,
My painful thoughts had at that moment in time disintegrated and all I could consider was how sweet revenge truly did sound.
I gathered up the last scraps of strength in me.
The only thing I did feel was fury engulfing my body burning through my mind, my soul like the wrath of hellfire that haunted me once before.

Sweet revenge is all I acquire now,
My dark days finally over,
I have wandered the bleakness of these lands,
Seeking out my darker side, my older sibling, the fiend I call my brother.
Your fate my brother is in my hands,
There is nowhere for you to run.
Your blood will stain my hands.
I am coming for you,
I am here.
You thought you destroyed me,
But here I still stand.
Seeking revenge,
Seeking sweet innocent revenge.
