A/N: This is focusing on Sasuke and his thoughts after the Team 7 reunion in chapter 484.


Bittersweet

..

.

a favorite fruit is in his hand

-cherry tomato of bitterly sweet

red juices.

.

he rotates it with his fingers, left

then right

as he ponders how it'll taste.

.

one month before, that hand

held another cherry

-so bitter, so sweet.

.

he remembers how the obsessed

former friend

stole the cherry from his hold.

.

the juices trickle down his fingers

when he strangles what

he loves-

.

another hurt, another revenge.
