Prompt #21: Maya Angelou
Oh I agree, I do agree. Don't you?
I can help you with that, you know. It's so hard to keep it inside, isn't it?
I can help you let that secret out, pry the ice off your soul and shove you into action. Do something about those terribly burdensome, sneaky little hidden desires.. Go ahead, go on, do it~ Pick up the gun, pick up the keys, pick up that letter not addressed to you and open it, whatever it is, do it. You'll feel better, isn't it better to have these things settled once and for all? Don't suffer, don't keep it inside, you poor poor thing.
... I on the other hand, have nothing left of my own inside, hidden or not. They didn't leave me so much as a name. I wouldn't call it agony, what I feel. I'd call what I'll do to them in return agony and then some.
