Dearest reader!
It's possible the content of this piece may not be of primary concern
Still, it's not out of place to be equipped with all truth
By this, we protect ourselves from becoming victims
To weapons that can hurt but could be averted
Putting the feelings that birthed these lines to words wasn't easy
Neither was finding the best of phrase to convey actual emotions
Because it speak of the core of every man's existence
One of the very pillars that makes humanity
Truly, we are a bundle of emotions and feelings
And they have a way of affecting our decisions
But shall we allow these, that burn but for a few moment
Walk us into a lifetime of pains, unimaginable
What shall be our gain if in the name of love
We bring upon ourselves things that can limit our joy
That in the pursuit of happiness and companionship
We ended up picking heartache and sorrows
In all honesty, I desire that the advancement of science
Had come to a stage where Genotype is not a string
Holding people's lives or limiting their emotional expression
But while we wait for this miracle of Science
We go on with our lives, living with the pain silently
Pain of caring for someone but having to ignore the feeling
To love a person but having to live in denial of it
To sincerely wish for a future with someone
But just can't bring yourself seeing the possibilities
Experiencing such a life must truly hurt
Perhaps, a pain words can't convey
These and more are the weight on many shoulder
This chapter could be pain or maybe it is already
Depending on the choices you've garnished yourself with
So, with the future in mind
Will your guiding chart be based on feeling or logic?
I hope you make the right decision on this
And hopefully, it bring you into a lifetime of joy
