Vengeance Or Peace
Vengeance is fire, consuming me whole
As validation from many grabs her soul
The flames flicker, dancing in my eyes
Burning bright with unrelenting cries
I feel the heat sear through my veins
My heart pounds with anger and pain
The desire for revenge, a fierce inferno
That devours my thoughts, a relentless burrow
I am consumed by the need to strike back
To make them pay for their cruel attack
The memories of betrayal like a knife
Twisting in my gut, fueling my strife
I plot and plan, the flames grow higher
My mind consumed by thoughts of ire
I will not rest until justice is served
Until the wrongs are righted, the debt is preserved
But as I walk down this path of rage
I realize vengeance is a double-edged blade
For in seeking to right the wrongs done to me
I risk becoming the monster I swore to defeat
The fire within me burns bright and hot
But I fear it may consume all that I've got
I must find a way to temper the flames
To find peace in forgiveness, to break free from these chains
For vengeance may feel like a righteous cause
But in the end, it only leads to loss
I must find a way to let go of the past
To move forward with grace, to find peace at last
So I extinguish the flames that rage within
I choose to let go of the need to win
For in the end, vengeance is a hollow prize
I will find my peace in forgiveness's guise.
And so I release the fire that once burned so bright
I choose to walk in the healing light
For in forgiveness, I find my true release
And in letting go of vengeance, I find inner peace
