This my first attempt at expressing my dark side through poetry

I have taken you to the wood shed, but you will not return
I will hack up your bones then watch them burn
But not before I do a butterfly cut and pull your insides out
And on my wall your skinned skull I will proudly mount
You gave no thought to my heart, so neither will I yours
I will put your black heart through a blender; a smoothie for the insects outdoors
Fortunately for you that you won’t have to live another day
Unlike me, who will have to live every day feeling this pain
The pain of your betrayal,
                      I would love to cut out with my saw
The pain of your lies,
                      I would love to burn them all
The pain of your thoughtlessness,
                      I would love to drain them out
The pain of ever knowing you,
                      I would love to forget about
So deeply embedded in me, you will never go away
No matter how far I scatter your bones that did not incinerate
Your cheating black heart, though blended nice and thin
Will never stop beating alongside mine... within
