Did I cross the line...?
Write a poem or short story about a character going too far.
Did I Cross The Line?
She made my life a living hell
So I returned the favor
Although I got my revenge
Still
Deep down
I hate her
I tore her down into little parts
Like she had done to me
We are the lovers with parting hearts
Violent and vengeful
With feelings that flee
Digging through the scraps of her
Who is now a hollow shell
I’ve always seen the worst of her
Now her life is hell
I feel empowered
I feel deranged
To see that I could cause so much pain
We are the lovers with parting hearts
When you look at me
Your falling tears start
Empty eyes
Just hollow skin and bone
I never meant to make you feel alone
We tore eachother down
Time after time
But tell me
Please.
