The BEAST!

She gritted her teeth, clenched her fists
The grip so tight, ready for the fight.
Anguish, animosity, and evilness
Embroidered her tonight.
"Tear apart his heart!" screamed she,
"The Beast knows no mercy".
The burning fire and rage in her eyes,
God Almighty!
That was the darkest of the nights.
He begged and pleaded, helpless and unaware.
Oh the cries so loud,
Strongest of the storms would have never made such sound!
The wolves howled, and the deads sang,
As she danced in the rhythm like a ruthless queen.
Astonished as he watched her move
Told himself- "I know this rhythm, I know I do".

Remembered he the night; the night so dark and lusty,
When he had made love; passionate love to this beauty.
Drunken lovers, brittle promises,
Tight embrace and soft kisses.
"I'll never get over you" he had said,
Gullible and tender, "Same here" she had exclaimed!
Next morning the loving souls departed with the hope to meet again.
But their fate had some plans different!
Angel used to be she, full of love,
Waited too long for him to return.
Times passed and seasons changed;
Old times gone, nothing same remained,
Until the night she saw the man again!
Alas! This time in another woman's embrace.
Elated he looked, frailed was she,
Passed by her side but did not notice.
"I was your moon, you were my stars" cried she;
Stunned and perplexed, "I don't even know who you are" replied he.
Betrayed and helpless, far away in her solace,
Gathered together her guts, for all these years!

Today as she stands, firm and strong,
To inflict him pain, and quench her thirst
With the sweet taste of revenge.
Nothing to calm her tonight,
She has already made up her mind,
To rip off his heart and laugh while he bleeds.
No forgiveness, no foolishness,
Just pure evilness around. 

And, as contemplation surrounds,
The man whispers,
"End this pain with the sweetest kiss,
For I want to feel the tenderness of those lips".
The look so calm and the voice apologetic,
"Please end this tonight,
For I wish to see no another twilight".
She then leans, forwards those bloody lips
Whispers in the softest voice- "As you please".
Another minute he lies under her knees,
Pool of blood everywhere;
Finally a trail of tears after all these years.
