So I have no heart and I'm made of tin and I'll live a long time as long as the rust doesn't do me in. I have more than a lifetime to remember how I wasted my life tending the whims of the Wicked Witch of the East.

Bitter? You bet I am. Everyone else got to live a life. Glinda, Fiyero, even Elphaba. I got saddled with Nessarose as a favor to the one I truly loved, but I think I was cheated. Or tricked. My lack-of-heart tells me Glinda didn't care if I was doing a good deed. She had her eyes on someone else, and I meant nothing to her. Except someone to keep Nessa out of her hair, because why would someone like her want to be seen with someone imperfect like Nessa?

Or was it...why would she want to be seen with someone like me?

Then or now, why would Glinda associate with me? I was a polite young Munchkin then, and here I am a clattering pile of cans.

And I have eternity to think about it, regret it, and simmer away in wishes of turning back time.

wicked, 31_days
