Before Anything Starts...

The following poem uses familiar ideals to express strong emotions to relate the idea of how situations can get out of hand, especially situations involving experiences and people that we are passionate about...including ourselves.


How many times is too many,
when it seems your heart and mind have never agreed?
What do you do, when you don't know what to do,
and every feeling you've ever had feels untrue?
Is it fair to say, that everything in love plays,
on how very different your words and actions
reveal exactly what you didn't want to say?

What is the purpose of hurting for love?
Is it the example that came from above?
The war between good and evil was hinged,
on unconditional love that humans still seem to not comprehend?
(Giving what is most precious without the slightest ulterior motive,
only to express your love and the lengths you will go for that love)
Or is it the glutinous for punishment that we see exhibited by
Adam and Eve's inability to resist the sweet taste of a fruit that was
forbidden from the sky?

Why do we ask questions that we think we want to know the answers to,
when actually, we're searching for a hope of a reality that we desire desperately to be true?
(No one likes rejection...the truth hurts,
sadly it is needed so that relationships and
situations are not based on a false reality)
Is it so hard to believe that a lie was told, in hopes not to hurt?
Or is it easier to point the judgemental finger
because you're the one that got hurt?
What is the answer to the questions that have no real answers?

For example, will I be a famous composer, singer, or dancer?
(No one can predict the future...yet we are hurt when honest, maybe tactless answers are given. We all yearn to be inspired by the ones we love and want to be an inspiration as well)

These are aspirations, such as one for peace of mind or reparations
for all the heartache, pain and suffering, tactless rants and
arguments over fabrications.
"Everybody knows that nobody really knows, how to make it right..." (J. Legend)
So why give it one more try when you are still hurting deep inside?

Wanting something you think you need is so inconsiderate of one's own heart,
Seems like more should be considered before anything ever starts.
