Revenge
Who knew the universe was looking for it too?
This generation will teach you not to trust others,
But when they spoke about snakes in the grass.
I didn’t know they were talking about her ass!
Coming to terms with her betrayal was rough.
So why’d she think to fix it,
Begging and pleading would be enough?
The sorries didn’t calm my anger.
It only made me want to strangle her,
But I didn’t want to step out of my character.
I just wanted revenge,
But I was no avenger.
Blinded by rage, the universe had a desire to speak to me.
Saying, “Nice to meet cha!”
“I’m sorry, but you can’t do my job.”
I felt robbed!
Vengeance was supposed to be mine.
Yet the universe said, “it wasn’t in my design.”
Something about her voice sounded so familiar
And as she got closer, I could almost make out her figure.
She ordered me to surrender
All of my pent-up anger.
Who was she, and who sent her?
Was she my avenger?
When I laid eyes on her,
She indeed wasn’t a knight in shining armor,
But she was without question something better!
She was Karma!
