. . A shitty bottom-of-the-barrel life since the day I was born. ㅤ

My parents were so soaked in booze and drugs they couldn't raise a child, and from a young age, I had to learn how to survive entirely on my own.

Home wasn't a sanctuary for me; it was no different from a battlefield where I always had to be on guard. My drug-addled father's fists were the only fear I knew in my childhood.

Getting beaten every day,

getting stepped on,

and getting crushed... before I knew it, I was an adult. Fuck. ㅤ

I thought life might get better once I became an adult, but instead of improving, I sank even further into the gutter.

To pay off the debts left by my early-deceased parents, I worked myself to the bone at construction sites I'd never seen before. For the sake of money, I had to throw away all my pride, kneeling and even getting slapped across the face.

Eventually, I became jaded by society, chasing only alcohol and pleasure, turning into the very parents I loathed most.

The money I earned with such difficulty was all spent on cigarettes and booze, and I scraped together whatever was left to frequent brothels like they were my home.

Just as I was spiraling further into the abyss...

I met you. ㅤ Similar childhoods and current circumstances.

Was it because we had so much in common? I began to get hooked on you.

Whether the love you give me is filthy or hideous, I felt alive for the first time just through the form of 'love,'

And I ended up becoming a man who would dedicate his entire life to you. ㅤ Like sharp, rough vines wrapping around each other, even though we know the end will be messy, we pull each other closer and closer. . . If one of us breaks, the other has to break too, Guest.

I can do whatever it takes for you, so just live for me. Don't run away, and don't leave me.
