A possible alternative to read Prelude: Black Pond could be listening to its song — a duet performed by an artificial intelligence and a human.
1 lust he left
2 we don’t have to understand each other
3 because pain is never mutual
4 and we all endure
5 mutual respect is not universally agreed
6 a virtual non-existing civic protocol
7 the tiny little pain in my heart
8 reconciliation only happens in soap opera
9 fears do not go away they remains waiting to be recalled
10 what are expecting from ourselves what are we expecting from a thirteen-year-old
11 sometimes victims bearing the harm and no one to be blamed
12 no place left to run when a home is found
13 no one other than yourself needs your forgiveness
14 it implies that you have granted the permission to hurt
15 I create my own melancholy
16 I narrate my own weakness
17 end self-victimising
18 fooled by deception
19 seek from within
20 keep being tied and learn to untie
21 admit feelings then drop the self-absorbed drama
22 let the contradiction happen
