A sonnet I wrote a while ago. Will be back to updating this blog more regularly; I’ve had a mad week :S anyway, hope you like and feel free to give feedback!

Love for Revenge

If I were to take my revenge on you,

Would I simply murder you, end your life,

Is that really the worst that I could do?

Remove you, stop your caustic knife.

Should I tear the beating heart from your chest,

Let my claw like nails puncture your skin,

Crack your ribs to reach my bloody prize, best,

Would claiming this muscle merit this win?

No, this revenge would be too merciful,

With care, I can inflict much greater pain,

Therefore, I will lead you into a lull,

And then, in all that you do, hell will reign.

There are things more brutal than a fleshy scar

For you, punishments, more cruel and bizarre.
