Misperception by Papirini

It never ends, does it?


Every day, every night, it tears into me. It is like a knife cutting inside my ribcage, causing my heart to bleed within its chest. It's a pain thousands of times worse than anything else I've felt before.


The truth. The truth hurts like a ton of bricks. And yet that is why the truth is always being thrown back at me without recourse. The same anger, the same resentment, is repeated over and over so that my agony has no end.


I am not loved. I was never loved, and never will be loved. That I am cursed to be a pariah is something they made sure I knew. That I was shunned was something they made sure that I would bear for the rest of my life. That they locked me away from the world in shame, that they deprived me of something I never should have lost, as if I were a criminal. I was sentenced to this life and to the crime before I was even able to walk or talk or remember. It is a burden that I will never get rid of.


Or is it?


Maybe today, in this strange new place, there is a solution. It must be possible if I am here. And since I'm here, among the equals I never knew I possessed, I only have one wish.


I want an end to the years of pain, and to the inadequacies that caused it. I want to take what is rightfully mine, and at last be accepted by those who should have loved me from the start. There is only one choice in how I will fulfill my mission


I must utterly destroy the one who usurped my parents' minds and hearts before I was even born. I will make that person suffer as I suffered, only more. I will show them my pain, I will finally release my anger. And then, I will take their life away as they took mine.


I will accept nothing less than that....
