Burning Paradise IV
I simply can... maybe, but... I do not wish to, contain this fire any loner...
"Lukewarm?..."
Is that what they see?
offended by my own surroundings‐
At what cost?...
am I concerned what they think‐
Should I...
just for the hell of it...
let this fire walk free from these walls?...
Could the public contend with this, Burning Paradise?
Can the world make sense of how a void can burn this way?
Forgive my rage...
or not, but
regardless...
there is no "watering down" a flame such as this‐
Such an unforgiving heat
can, with no doubt, reach the farthest ends of existence‐
so...
Shall I open up these walls?...
that this world may be consumed by the same irate fire as am I?...
that the public may feel the hot wind's tirade blow as do I?...
and for what?...
nothing but the hell of it?
Forgive my passive aggression...
or not, but
regardless...
there's no "sugar coating" any day within this waking nightmare‐
Such a hurt that burns so hot
cannot possibly be "Lukewarm..."
can it?...
If so, then...
why not...
extinguish this flame and me along with it...
or drown this nightmare that I may sleep without reawaking‐
And if not, then...
why not...
simply burn away that I may not be all that is left in this‐
Burning Paradise...
or block my breath that I may not consume the fumes of this‐
Burning Paradise—

Personally, writing began as a creative outlet, to be a means of processing and venting emotion, but it has become so much more. Something I want not to be just relatable, enjoyable and a good read, but to reach someone who is in need.
