Vengeance is not Mine

Posted byRitaPosted inPoetry, WritingsTags:, , , , ,

I could have hit you from behind

A slight bump and

You would fall

You would be angry

Maybe get off your motorcycle and come looking

For a fight

You would see me then

Recognition would dawn in your eyes

You would feel fear

I could take my foot from

The brake

Run you over

Out of my life

For good.

For always.

But even if no one witnessed it

Even if I was never caught

God would see as

He saw you

Bring all of our pain

I could have hit you

It would not have removed your hits.

  1. I know that when someone hurts us we want to hurt them back but it’s not up to us to make them pay for their sins. They will pay, it’s just not up to us. Just know that you’re better than that and won’t stoop to their level.
