Fucking Eden. We ruined ourselves.
Any slice of paradise (pie) that we find is always tainted (burned?) in some way,
I rarely find a blessing without strings attached anymore. (okay, maybe not rarely, but still...) A challenge always seems to present itself.
Anything I find enjoyable comes with a price. I must sacrifice something, even if it’s my sanity. Which I fear I might indeed lose soon whether from guilt or denial.
Why must this be so difficult?
Why can’t something simply be beautiful and wonderful?
Why must it be tarnished with temptation?
*disclaimer: pardon my language. all writers curse. it's pretty much a fact.
