MALICE



                              MALICE
Keeping you sadly in my mind
Viewing you strongly from my heart
Smelling the odious revenge in my head
Feeling the sound of victory over my face.

I can’t be a victim of my heartless malice
The apt can’t turn upon me
My venom is the greatest part of me
I wouldn’t call it illegitimate.

Malice in me is authentic and sincere
My words are true but malicious
Malice is a greater magnifying force than confrontation
I decide to favor life out of malice.

When I repay evil for evil, I become evil
I can die out of maliciousness, but malice never
I let not the malice in me destroy life
Remedy to all malice is sacrifice.
