A Murderer Named Revenge

Before killing him,

your last moments flashed.

 

Those despairing eyes,

that begging grasp you died with,

and it hit me.

At that moment,

I finally understood.

 

It never brooded

you don't want me

to avenge your unjustified death.

I didn't know

you'll realize before anyone

I'll slowly embrace a hideous monster

and torture those who tortured you.

 

Eventually,

I pulled the trigger and fired.

I can't go back.

I've came a very long way

and can't go back now.

 

I avenged your death

and avenged my pain

                           and lost myself forever.
