Letting go was not for me,
wrongs or rights endlessly.
Every wrong righted with glee,
that was who I was the righteous me.
And then a car entered my lane,
I swerved to avoid was the guy insane.
I looked and saw he's on the phone,
anger arose my actions my own.
I beeped the horn and shot the finger,
he paid no attention my anger lingered.
he sped fast cut others off too,
I chased him down we weren't through.
The breakdown lane was his next surprise,
as traffic backed up the stakes would rise.
I followed him not sure why,
wanting revenge, I wanted this guy.
If I caught him he was surely through,
This was a fact I truly knew.
I would beat him within an inch of life,
for he cut me off and caused me strife.
From the freeway and through a light,
chased him through red not losing sight.
and then he turned into hospital grounds,
I followed now slowing down.
His tires screeched and slid to a stop,
driver door opened with a pop.
He ran around the front of the car,
and pulled out a child limp in his arms.
He ran through the emergency doors,
my emotions reversed and i changed course.
I no longer boil at a minor slight,
maybe just maybe its wrong to be right.

Honeymoon
If you can't sleep
Let silence help you
We'll melt you in a pot
Cook you then sell you
Cheap like your games

Athena's Wrath
How I burn, how I hate.
How dare the gods and
The revelation of your birth!
How I'm green, how I envy

Revenge rages forward
from a dreadful decision;
from betrayals and broken promises,
stirring my ferocious vision.
by Hanna Joseff
Hatred mind, beneath my heart
Long gone in time, unchain the vengeance
Beneath the voyage is a heartfelt abundance
Delayed
