Drenched in blood
A crimson colour of mourning
Desperate for a cure
Slipping away
Scraped violently into the abyss of hell
Slept helplessly beside the galling chaos
The void in his heart
The scar in his soul, crippling
Skin blistered by disdain
Hands withered in fetter
Decorum immured by guilt
Died unknown.
Ragazza Triste 
Such a heartfelt poem !
Words woven beautifully !

Emotionally written and worded with such feeling. Art can be taken many ways and darkness is sometimes misunderstood. There is struggle within this and thatβs a sign of positivity, without struggle thereβs no progress. Powerful read indeed, dark but you have to see beyond the light.

Thank you so much for this great comment. Yes, this is a bit dark and gloomy, but there’s strength in its weakness and I believe that the subject will come around and find the light. π

Amazing blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring
writers? I’m planning to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
Would you recommend starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices
out there that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any tips?
