Sweet Revenge

by Christine Mangosing - Scorpio

A sin of a moment's insanity on my part-
Premeditated vengeance on yours…
Here in the pressing darkness that hides us
We indulge in this forbidden ecstacy.
So softly, so sweetly
You play the role of a lover
So convincingly…
I almost believe. 
Piece by piece,
You strip away my inhibitions,
Silence my protests,
And engulf me in this illusion of bliss
That you have created.
With unrestrained passion more tender 
Than anything I can recall from the dimmest facets of my memory,
You embody the spirit of everything I desire…
And everything I have ever feared.
Almost mockingly, you challenge me to resist
Knowing there is no need
 for I,
knowing that I am nothing to you
but a willing instrument for your sweet revenge,
have already embarked on my own. 









Reason for writing:

    Some people will do anything just to achieve revenge...this is
an example of how far some people actually go.
