Description
Fool me onceI'll cut you twice.
Hurt me and
I'll kill you thrice.
If you can't be nice
Then away you should turn.
Little boys who play with fire
Get their fingers burned.

Well, this makes no bones about what itβs trying to communicate.

This takes on the tone of somebodyβs whoβs been jilted or abused in some way, but rather than completely lose the plot and perhaps get in trouble for it, theyβre perfectly content to write these words of warning, a toxic reminder that βHell hath no fury.β Each line burns with a passionate rage, and its brevity is its strength as weβre left to wonder just what you are capable of as a person.

Needless to say, this is one good piece of work. There was a strong rhythm in there while I read it, and it expresses so much without needing to go into detail. Could imagine a sequel to something like this, but in the meantime, keep it up!
*The feeling when your comment's longer than the poem itself...*

Thank You so much! And for the record, I love long comments. XD
Honestly, I feel bad sometimes for not worrying longer works but hey, as long as people enjoy them.

Hey, anything to get on your good side, especially after those fightin' words.
Seriously though, it deserved the praise. You're very welcome and all the best now!
