Hello, I am Revenge

Hello, I am Revenge. 

People think of me as dark and dangerous. They say I make people angry, bitter, or even cruel. But I have a reason for being. 

I am born from pain. When someone is hurt, ignored, or treated unfairly, I appear. I whisper, "Make them feel what you felt." I can be loud and fiery, pushing people to act without thinking. I can also be quiet and patient, waiting for the right moment. 

But here’s something people don’t always understand… I don’t fix anything. I do not heal wounds. I do not bring back what was lost. I only give the feeling of power, and that feeling does not last. 

A house on fire to depict the feeling of revenge

Imagine a fire that burns a house. At first, the flames are strong, and everything is hot and bright. But when the fire is gone, all that’s left is ashes. No home. No warmth. Just emptiness. That is what I often leave behind. 

Sometimes, people think I will bring justice. But I am not justice. Justice is fair and balanced. I am not. I only want to take back what was taken, hurt what was hurt, destroy what was broken. I do not care about right or wrong. 

So, the next time you feel me, be careful. I am powerful, but I am also a trick. I may promise to make things better, but I can just as easily leave you with nothing. 

 

With fire and whispers, 

Revenge
