Short Story
Everyone Does it...
If only... Ah, hindsight. If only I could let it all go, let all the emotions building up inside me go. If only I could say, "My tears need a minute to find the edges of my face. If you'll please excuse me." when someone asks if I'm okay rather than my usual response of "Yes, getting by, day by day." Of course, I'm not okay, and there's every chance I won't ever be okay again. Why would anyone think I would be okay?

It gets to be maddening every once in a while. To calm the hornets to a dull buzz, I used to take long brisk walks, but a few weeks before I was hospitalized and a few months afterward I was unable to do this without experiencing chest pressure and shortness of breath. Recovery has been slow but I’m finally at a stage where I can walk again with no ill effects.

Revenge. Content Warning.
I've got it. The acid. It took some doing but nothing a bit of trawling through the internet can't help with. I've got a lot in common with this acid, I think. I could probably tap into myself and siphon it off without having to buy it, I'm that bitter. And these feelings I have, fizzing, it's like they're sitting there, waiting, slowly corroding my innards, filling me with heat. If I keep them in any longer, they're gonna turn me from a living breathing body into powder.
