Conviction mocked her
As her heart laid bare
While revenge and malice
Caught her unaware
The dagger gleamed brightly
Profuse sweat matting her hair
And the blade slid easily
Through a heart that wasn’t there

Glad you liked it. 😉 And that’s the beauty in writing, isn’t it? We can voice our grim desires, and yet nobody actually ever gets hurt. Lol…. 😉
