You smashed my heart, my life to pieces
like blood red glass upon my floor
You made me long for vengeance
like I've never longed before
I've made myself a new one,
fed by brightly burning hate
and if we meet down my dark alley
My lucky chance, your dismal fate
False your lies, your accusations
With practiced ease you ruined me
And the law that helped you do it
In public eye for all to see
Your torment made my soul turn dark
Your dark heart twisted my very mind
And now I'm back be very sure
that I'll respond in kind
I never forgive
I never forget
you thought that you killed me
but I'm not dead yet
My morals broken beyond recall
You sparked inside me darkest fire
Love turned to pain, and then to hate
And all on force of your desire
And no one's tried to teach you
the morals you so sadly lack
But justice is not dead quite yet;
I've come to
get
you
back!

I choose option 2. This poem is based on a movie. Just for a hint, It's supposed to sound like it's written by a madman.
