Poem/story: This girl is very clever when it comes to her emotions, she keeps them hidden, unlike her brother. she will keep to herself and plot her revenge for days, months, even years to come. That is- until her wrath grows so unbearable that she explodes. And boy, I feel sorry for whatever is caught in her furious path! Write me a poem , or tell me a story of what happened when she exploded. Why was she so angry? What happened when she went off?
Story:Sorry it's pretty long....
"Roseus try harder! A foal could do better!" my father growls then, he canters the other way to coach my brother,my brother! Always him! Every since that filth of a horse was born he treated me like I can't do anything right! It become all about HIM! I walk off with my head high like I need him, like I need anybody!I am not going to let him get to me, not now. I try to calm myself down however, it doesn't work, it never does. I felt if my father or brother do as much as say a word to me i'll complete explode and all my emotions will come out and I can't let that happen. I don't like other horses seeing my motions, my emotions having their "sympathy" their "trust" their "love". That's why i don't like being around other horses,in the fear of loving another horse. Love is something that can be given and token away something to fragile to trust. That's why i don't love other horse, not again.
I don't know if I should go to see my father this morning and risk exploding at my brother mention. "Why not?" I think to myself and gallop to where I know I'll see my father hopefully, without that filth I call a "brother". Sure enough I see my father head walk through the gate with another horse a dark brown with a blaze, my brother. Of course he would be with my brother. He is ALWAYS with my brother.
"Fathe-" I start to say.
"Roseus do you mind! I am talking to your brother"! he snaps, I lower my head. My memory goes to phrases with that word "brother" in it he said to me through past training sessions. Come on Roseus we are going to train with brother. Roseus why can't you learn like your BROTHER. Why don't you listen like your BROTHER! Why aren't you more like your BROTHER! Fury runs through me like a water through a river. Something inside of me snaps. That's it! I can't handle it anymore!
"Yes I do mind!" I snap back throwing my head up from the lowered position. My mane scatters randomly across my neck giving me a wild look. "Why do you spend all your time with HIM!" I emphasize him as I coldly spit out the words throwing my head forward so I am only a hooves length away from his head. "Why am I not good enough for you?" My father looks down a mix of embarrassment and another feelings I can't and don't care about figure out. He is silent. Then, my brother jumps in.
"Did you ever think everything maybe is not a slice of cake for me either?" He growls his voice nearly as cold and angry as mine. "Oh, I forget everything is about ROSEUS isn't it! Do you even think of other horses?" My angry intensifies I rear up kicking my front legs.
"I would say the same to you, BROTHER!" I say at the same time I go down from my rear and kick my brother hard into the fence. When I turn my neck around to see I have attracted quite a crowd. Although, I am to angry to feel embarrassed right now. I felt a slight bit of satisfaction when I see scarlet drop form from his side that hit the fence. His ears turn back he looks scared and angry he backs as far away from me as he can. A horse runs over to see if he is okay well and another steps between me and my brother, my father. I hear voices in the background "Did you see what Roseus did?" "Why did she do that she should know better then that!" "What I disgrace she is!" "What's her father going to do to her?". My father raises his head and clears his throat the crowd going silent.
"Roseus, you must leave now" He says his voice emotionless. He has done this before but, with my brother not me, never me. He asks you to leave and you have to wait till he forgives your outbreak, which is never a short time it could be a week to a month...
"But Father-" I try to explain myself but, my father interrupters me.
"But nothing my choice is made up" he says "No daughter of mine will act like this so go" My angry fades to sorrow and embarrassment I put my head down. I heard several gasps and agreeing smirk comments in the crowd. One clever smirk louder than the rise, my brother's. His word repeat in my head, so Roseus you finally got what you deserve. I am to focused on my father's word than to care and get mad over what that filth thinks. Although I can't shake the feeling of wanting to kick him, harder this time.
"Okay" I say I keep a calm look but, I feel like crying on the inside. Everyone's eyes go on me as a leave; I go to a gallop so I don't have to look at them. I go to a peaceful pasture away from all the other horses. All I want to do is show my father that I am as good as he thinks my brother is. But, that will never happen not now. I feel tears drip down my face. It that such a ridiculous wish? I feel my hatred for that filth rise this is all his fault, everything is. If he was never born my father would be as hard on me or he mad at me for kicking that filth. Today in this pasture I vow to myself that I will never let my relationship with horse go to passion. I will never let cupid's arrow touch me. I will happily remain The one the arrow never hits.
Personality: This girl was her daddy's pride and joy. That is, until her brother was born. After that her father was harder on her. Her brother didn't get it easy either, but still. She always appears so calm, and it's hard to tell how she's really feeling. She has a clever mask on the majority of the time- But underneath she is a raging sea of anger and emotions. She is definitely a fighter, and she constantly picks on her brother or other horses she deems weaker. She is very head strong and independent, and she always: looks for the worst in horses. She doesn't true easy or even at all. But, you would ,too. If you were in her shoes. All her life she tried to prove to her father she is just as good as her brother. Although, she tends to take her angry out on her brother she is more mad with her father and can care less about her brother. Don't get me wrong she still hates him. She also, doesn't like the thought of others helping her because in her eyes it's weakness. She thinks that love is fragile and untrustworthy due to her father being harder on her than her brother.
