I killed you today

I killed you today

A Poem by Connie

Vengeance poem

"

I've waited for years for you to re-appear,

I sit with intent, vengeance and dried tears.

I told you I'd find you; did you think I'd forget?

It's time to collect debts of evil mindsets.

 

Mother, did you forget my blood on the wall?

Or on my sheets, do you recall?

Your rageful fists beat upon my skin,

You wanted me to pay for your unspeakable sins.

I will make you regret

I will make you regret

I bound your hands with chains in that room,

I drew your blood as you did mine,

It's this day that's your doom.

How does it feel to be losing your life?

You had no concern for the bright sunlight,

You left me only with faded twilight.

I say goodbye to you in this way-

In my mind I killed you today.


Oh Dear Sister I plainly see,

The other face you show only to me,

Filthy words fall from your lips,

Your lying smile, it's in your script.

I see clearly as sun through colored glass,

It's your intention to cause pain to last.

I am not weak, you will repay,

I tried for years to find a way.

I will make you regret

I will make you regret

I took you to the dead, darkened woods today,

Where evil sits and waits to take-

Those sinful in heart with debts to pay,

He'll take your mind for hearts betrayed-

In my mind I killed you today.

 

Dear Stepmother, your mind is not right,

You sink your talons into weakened plights.

You take and take- but from me, NO MORE…

I've escaped and locked you behind that door.

Your daughter is bitter poison too, you see,

Trying to drain my sanity;

She smiles while she lies with intent in her eyes,

I clearly see through her cunning disguise.

I will make you regret

I will make you regret

I locked you both in that dirty cage,

What you created for me is yours today…

I want you to feel my pent-up rage-

In my mind I killed you both today.

 

Dear Stepfather you crossed that line,

Of precious gifts which were only mine.

Your wicked indifference to a little girl's innocence,

You’re the evil of all evil…

Your demise is imminent.

I will make you regret

I will make you regret

As I plunged that knife into your heartless chest,

I smiled with contempt as you took your last breath,

I have saved others, I have no regrets-

As I came to collect on your outstanding debts-

In my mind I killed you today.

 

Dear Woman beater,

I've waited a long time,

To finally seek justice which only is mine,

I will make you regret

I will make you regret

How dare you put your filthy hands on me?

Or knock me up with baby after baby?

My head into walls and dragged across floors,

The terror I endured is now going to be yours.

I shackle you down against these rusty bars,

With hands and feet bound you'll pay for my scars.

That knife slowly piercing your deadest of hearts,

I smile as you bleed, and your last breath departs-

In my mind I killed you today.

 

There's no more hurt or fake concern,

These broken bridges I have burned.

The sun will now shine on better days,

In my mind I killed you all today.

This is an amazing piece here. It's so moving, I felt like I was having a conversation with my mind. I have never experienced this kind of violence but somehow, I could feel the rage. This is a great piece

Spellbinding. For all the evil and indifference this world offers, we are still struck dumb that family can do this to a child, their own flesh and blood. But it does happen and I can only be grateful I have never known it. If I had, I do seriously doubt that I would have shown them the kindness to only mind-kill them all. Peoples indifference to their fellow man/woman/child is all too real, just as the punishments should be. If you deprive another of their basic human rights, then you should forfeit yours and be permanently caged for life. When it is a child, killing is too good.
I greatly admire your strength and courage.
Your words will bring hope to others.
I have no other words left.
