Anytime I took revenge
or before I took revenge,
the strange thrill of murder
or killing the target in question
came into my mind,
but the good part of me conquered
it always and has always conquered it,
I have never killed
Well, it is the abrupt prompt
of conscience that pushes me
to write down this 100% truth,
anytime I took revenge,
I felt like a different person
I felt that it was not me,
but my inability to forgive
pushed me to carry out
some of my dastardly deeds,
downright evil,
I felt different,
and not only that,
I felt powerful, in the sense
that I had restored my pride
by getting revenge to the fullest
I felt like a demon,
immortal one at that
But after I had commit this sin of vengeance,
and I came back to my normal, good self,
I could see angels weeping
and as usual felt the anger of God,
angels and my good conscience,
asking me this simple question;
"Why did you let De-graft go,
and allow Sinister to come in,
why?"
My soul would cry deeply,
thinking why I had done what I did
Well, this is the best way
I found to set my soul free,
whenever the conscience
strikes me like a guillotine,
I shall write the story of myself,
in a poetic form like this
as I am doing now
this is the only way, I discovered
to remove all the hatred,
I have harboured for the eighteen years
of my life I have spent on this earth
This is my darkest side
and I intend to get rid of it,
I have foolishly mistaken it for power
too many times,
but it is black sin,
from this day forth
the fangs of revenge
that make me a cobra,
must be cut off by truthfulness
to make me 100% De-graft Afful Jr.
