So I have a legal reason To kill you without regret. The time is of the season And your due paid and met.
You’ve struck me with words With insults, now with your fists So now it’s time for the all but absurd From your chest, I will rip
Your heart with my bare hands Do not even try to demand What I will do; or how I will do it You just met your match and lit
Upon a force to be reckoned with Now we will see justice prevail Not an old wife’s tale or myth Just your reward for all the hell
You have showered upon another’s soul Over and over again, above and below. The reaper has come to call, and it will be done What you have done returned ten fold in full sum.

About this poem:
Abusive relationships are very sharp in my mind while writing this pen.
Thanks for sharing this bitter, yet powerful, poem tinged with thoughtful social implications.

Very, very powerful. I've been there so I know where the rage and emotion comes from.
