revenge

revenge

                            blessing buhril

You are not my foe

and so I chose

not to fight you

I’ve thought about

what I should be doing

as I come along

when evening falls

and you start the scene

On evening like this

every time yes every time

it never takes long

for all my hopes

my dreams

to shatter

On evening like this

like everyone else

I easily tripped

walking the thin line

of

reason and emotions

And so

I’ve thought about

how I should fight back

bullet for bullet

anger for anger and

blood for blood

On evening like this

but I was wondering

if one could ever care

to listen

listen to that voice

that faintly whispers…

But courage

I don’t have it

and how much

I wish I could

I wish I would

gather enough courage

to listen to that faint voice

In the darkest of hour

does it make sense

to believe that

the only true revenge is..

to not..

to not avenge at all?

But

here

right here in this evening

I am telling you this

that..

you are not my foe

and so I chose

not to fight you
