The Face of Revenge - Poem




The face of revenge is always hungry
The heart never soothed, always angry
The soul is like a candle that consumes itself
Exhausted, burnt out, with nothing to give
Living only revenge as the motive to live
In the very end, that soul is reduced to ashes
And really was it worth those revenge lashes?

But if revenge is replaced with forgiveness
The Heavens would open and blessings would rain
One's thoughts would flow to a higher plane
With higher thoughts, we can soar on eagles wings
And the rumbling revenge chant is broken and replaced
With a soul is free as a bird that in blue skies sings
And that person can accomplish the greatest things!

Rita Farhat Kurian
