Okay
Now i’m pissed
I let you in
Into my house
Or rather
You let yourself in
And like an idiot, i let you
You strolled right on through
Breezing through the barriers
I had in place
Commenting on the colors
And decoration choices
While I chose to follow meekly
Now i feel stupid
Because I built that house
Unknowingly I built it out of wood
I built tall walls
A dark room
Long halls
And a tomb
You took a match
A gallon of gasoline
And lit up the house that I built
The one that was meant to protect me
And I fucking stand there
In the center of the house
My eyes unseeing
As they view the carnage
My mind miles away
as the rain poured down from the sky
Swallowing the flames
And there amongst the ashes
Of who i once was
I relised
That the one who i chose to let in
Was not a friend
Ha
They never were
They were just a fucking snake
Who’s only wish
Was to burn my house
And relish the heat of the ashes
But now i have risen
From the ashes
Like a fiery phoenix
My eyes aflame
Kindled by the flames of your betrayal
Now you best stay away
Little snake
Slither back into your hole
Or else I won’t be the only one
With burns that go deeper than skin
Come on out little snake
And I’ll teach you a lesson
On why you don't play with fire
As beautiful as it may be
When you play with fire
Someone always gets a burn
Now, now little snake
Slither away
Across the bridges, you chose to burn
Don’t you DARE think you won this game
That you made me play
It’s not over yet
Try not to forget
Karma catches up to everyone
And remember
Karma’s a bitch
But so am i
While I don’t get angry often
You made a friend cry
You managed the feat of my fury
And it will rain down upon you
Like hellfire, it will ring true
People tell me I’m angry
And i have every right to be
But
This doesn’t feel like anger
It feels like sadness and pain
Set ablaze
And even demons run for cover
from this undying feeling
that eats at my flesh
creating an angry rash
I never should have let myself care this much
But i did
And now I pay for it
I hope it hurts you
As much as it’s hurting me too
And honestly
I think it’s pretty fucked up
How can you go and hurt someone
And be perfectly fine with it
For the guilt of the harm
You willingly caused
To not eat you up inside
So be sure to pray to your gods
And your forgotten deities for mercy
Cause you’ve made an enemy out of me
And while your unkind gods may have mercy
Just know that i sure as hell won’t
May your skys go down in flames
Your heavens turn to hell
Your good things turn to ash
Watch as i dance across the bridges You burned

- Comment from author about the poem: this was a poem about a "friend" who betrayed me and tried to ruin every damn thing i care about. There is quite a bit of cussing and if you don't like it that's your own damn problem. I was hella mad while writing this and I'm still pissed. Honestly the betrayal doesn't hurt nearly half as much as the fact that he hurt my friends. Like people can walk all over me and dish out shit but the second you screw with my friends... well you better believe that imma start throwing hands. I couldn't classify this poem. there needs to be more emotionally related classifications available. Like happy, fear, anger. That sort of thing
