Sweet Revenge

Hearty is the voice of laughter I hear
Likely wonder it is my very own!
I waited forever for the end result;
Though whether worth it is yet to be known.

If it comes around, around it must go!
Myth or truth? I did decide;
Through experiment and utmost patience;
In the end, it is evident who lied.

Friends you discover in truth so soon,
When trust is needed in desperate form;
Fear separates the ones who believe -
Cold now, the look that should be warm.

Envy and prestige be yours ever more -
If listening and patience keep wise;
For none the better for precious revenge -
Was it truly worth the ultimate prize?
