Analysis of you’re the devil



I know what you did last summer
Play pretend all you want but we both know you know your sins.
Don’t act like you weren’t a part of the murder, talking like a victim,
Playing the victim key,
You know the demons come for you, they’re always there, in your head, looking at you in awe cause they know what you did.
I know what you did last summer.
The hell’s messengers half killed me at the beginning, and you were the reason, they cut me off and ripped me apart, you know you rigged them, you know you triggered them, you know you sinned.
You committed a tragedy.
When they failed to make me disappear completely you stepped in and I remember begging for your mercy when I wasn’t at the wrong,
 I remember screaming, yelling, crying and throwing up when you started tearing me apart, beginning from my heart cause you know me,
You know where it hurts the most,
You know me so well but I -
I know something you never tell
I know your sins
I know, I know what you did last summer.

About this poem

This poem is about a person in my life who left me at my worst when they promised they’d stick around and now act like they did not do anything to me but only i know how my life fell apart when they left and maybe they know it too.
