Fightback: The Revenge
 
I have to fight a lone battle
I have to fight my war
My failure is my stepping stone
To unlock the winner's door

I know it won't be easy
Success is not my friend
But I have learn to make a start
Before this life would end

The nasty laughs don't subside
The words of hurt still pain
But I have not lost my hope
My experience is my gain

I used to say, don't hurt me
And they would hurt me more
I would cry and I would say
It's you that I abhor

But then I learnt it's of no use
There is no time to brood
You won't change but I would
Change my attitude

Enough of a cry let them try
To hurt my bruised soul
If a taunt is their aim
Then a big punch is my goal

I have learnt to say enough
I have faced a lot till now
I will shred them into pieces
Don't ever ask me how

I owe my debt to all the hurt
That's stored in memories
If I get to slap them hard
I would say if you please

In fact I must thank them all
For the time they took to avenge
For in that wish, I do relish
The sweet taste of revenge

They were never my true friends
Their love was the biggest lie
But they will not get away
For all of them will die

For every hunt and every kill
The path of sin I'll trod
For I would like to punish them
Through the eyes of God

I have got the killer's instinct
The burning flame will grow
I was a good friend but now
Witness me as a foe

I am not an angry beast
I was as pure as a gem
But I am not the guilty one
For I was pushed by them

I may face many odds
From them I know I will
But don't think I'll lose
I will capture the hill

There are moments when I fail
I'm sad and I feel low
But when I look back at my past
I'm ready get set go

They were always envious
Of all the gifts I had
No wonder then I was sane
But they would call me mad

You always wanted me to fail
You went on with your plan
You never ever got my worth
For you got the wrong man

Look back into their past
And their endless bad deeds
Tears are like their patent gifts
When hope is what one needs

I will put a sure end to
My never ending tears
No one then can scare me for
In me live all my fears

I was born I was made
For the best awaits me here
I don't claim to be the best
But I am not inferior

I am not alone you see
I every kith and kin
God will fight my war for me
And I will always win

I will win this battle clean
Let time wind its loom
For then success will kiss my feet
And they will rot in doom



The Story Behind

I am back. Yes I am. This poem echoes with that message. I have written so many depressing poems in my life. They represented my tragic moods in different situations in my life, all of them being very true and very painful. I have been quietly suffering and tolerating that pain by swallowing my tears. But not any more. I will take revenge. I surely will. All of those, who have tried to demean me or insult me, this poem is my dedication to them. All those who have been crushing my emotions daily, this poem is for those friends. All those who have been taking me for a ride, or who have been trampling my soul. All those whom I begged to for hope, friendship, love and comfort in return of only pain, taunts, discouragement and unhappy memories this poem is for them. All those who have made me cry when I asked for soothing words this poem is for them. To all those folks, I would just like to say, "BEWARE". You messed with the wrong man.
