It seems I ruin all things.
I'm starting from scratch.
I don't know if this helps me...

The Struggle
This is the struggle:
I'm discovering myself,
Fighting the demons,
And supporting the flowers
Whose beauty envies devils.

Unforeseen Expenses
They don't make a sound
Creeping out from the darkness
To cause suffering
Scrutinizing fortitude
Never traveling alone

it is not just a fruit of
those nights we lack conviction
parenthood is never an accident

What is happening?
All these drowned and drenched victims.
Screaming at myself.
I am intoxicated.
Still don't know what's happening.

Her silken raiments,
Fashionably cascading,
In pools on the floor.
With beseeching ******,
And outstretched limbs, inviting.

Dark onyx reflects,
Glinting in the dragons eye,
Smoke billows, rising,
Flames flourish and coals smoulder,
The crackle of candent tongues.

Red and cream cushions,
A mix match upholstery,
Softer dark grey throws,
And blank magnolia walls.
Red curtains and raised carpet.

Boom thud, boom boom thud_
Eruptions of a ruckus.
With crimson darker,
Luminaries of the sky,
Echoes the silver moonlight.
