Am I so bad that all I see in this compliment is sarcasm and all in you is bitter. Bitter is only a way, never a taste so why say bitter. That taste is sour and sourness is when things go off. When you're off with me I know it's because of the bitterness. Our bitter is strong. Toxic. The result of fermented anger. Locked in some small space cooling in a steel casket. Fermenting. To be consumed in moderation. I dream of drowning in our corrosive distillment, setting a flood upon you. But no. It's still ours and so I couldn't bear to waste your half. I'll drink deep mine own. Keep it inside. Not near you. Let this fortified feeling burn through me. Scorch  my mind. And I will live. Unrecognizable. But always the same.
