Theme: Loving a Red Flag Man


Beneath the crimson warning sign,

a storm in disguise, I loved a man.

His charm was a flame that danced in deep,

a skeleton in the closet he vowed to keep.


His promises were twisted under the shadow.

A bunch of lies, he presents as a show.

For in his arms, where pain once dwelled,

I found myself torn in red.


Since loving him means putting out the fire,

a sway toward peril, a weak desire.

So let this scarlet romance be a decree,

to those who love with eyes that cannot see.


All the tears he caused me for crying

were nothing to how much I enjoyed the pain.

Maybe I'm the dumbest guy for still loving him,

even though I know he symbolizes pain.

what can I say?

I was addicted to suffering.
