Dictionary Fun 1

Throughout most of my life I have made an ATTEMP to overcome each and every STRUGGLE and ABOMINATION with which I have been faced. Doing this makes me CHERISH the FLAME of love and desire to do better which burns brightly in my INNER SOUL. With a YEARNING to be TENDER I try to deflect all SCORN, but the AFFECTION of a toxic RELATIONSHIP will often mask one’s PASSION. Just like the beautiful BLOOM of a poppy might BAMBOOZLE and mislead, where it could easily make one oblivious to the cancerous TASTE inside called cocaine. 

This was pure conjecture for the contest, it does not apply to me. JT
