Pushover

The flame wells inside me.

The tiniest thing can set it off.

The disgusted look of an enemy.

The littlest thing said can be taken the wrong way.

The flame is always there.

Someone just needs to add to it's fire.

Some people don't understand that my patience is starting to wear.

That when the little quite pushover turns to something that no one expected.

Out of no where that pushover punches the wall.

Or she curses under her breath.

She is about to loose any sense of mind if she had any at all.

Its gone too far for that pushover.

She bites her lip until her teeth makes their way through it.

She starts to stalk the person who set her off.

That pushover is just about to jump you and beat on you and not quit.

Then, the smallest bit of her sanity shines through.

As she raises her fist to strike she stops.

She notices her surroundings and lowers it. 

She goes back to her spot in the corner and plops.

She mutters to herself about how close that was.

This time she was lucky that she stopped herself.

She could have gotten in real trouble if she hadn't of.

"You better watch out." A demonic voice says "Watch yourself."

"You almost showed everyone who is really inside of this little pushover"

I love this, a perfect explanation of how being pushed to far and trying to be the better person by not showing how angry these little things make us. But of course, there's consequences. I love your writing, Iris. Well done.

This is really dark and understandable. It's a really nice write though. I just hope this doesn't get to bad..
