Bitterness isn't just a state of mind. Bitterness is another word for revenge. One day, bitterness will consume me, and take over my world. All the things I didn't do. All the things that made me unhappy. All the things that caged me, wrapped me, stopped me. All the things that bounded me, forbidden me, limited me. All the things that I should have done. All the things that I should have taken. All the things that I should have said. All the things that I wanted. All the things that made me happy. Everything will come to me. In bitterness. At the end of time. At the end of all things. But before I die, I will take revenge. I will take every little thing that consumed me, all that bitterness inside, pile them together, and burn it down to ashes. And then I'll watch you watch me. The fire reflected in your eyes, and I'll hear your thoughts before me. Maybe I'll even let you join me. I will set a bonfire. And it will be the mark of my happiness. It will be my revenge. I'll take what's mine. And discard this life I borrowed.
