Revenge

by Celtic Warrior   Mar 12, 2012


In your mind, in your skin,
It crawls, it feeds,
Again and again.

In your heart, in your soul,
It writhes and wriggles,
Making dark holes.

It drains your life, it drains your will,
It kills you slowly,
It does not feel.

It was born from hate, and with hate it will die,
It feels no pain or emotion,
It makes you cry.

It withers your blood, it shrivels your body,
I know its name,
I know its folly.

The horror that kills,
The horror that thrills,
It's name is...revenge.

    Its really good, although the one thing I'd change would be try to find a way to stick with a rhyming pattern, it makes the poem flor better and makes it less choppy.

    I really loved it, keep up the good work!
