Emotion

There is —
No birth — rebirth
Breakout —
Breakthrough — coming of age
Without pain

Yet —
To be in, form
Is — to already be —
In pain

The additional pain —
To come into — one’s own
May secondarily
Feel physical —

But — it originates
In psyche — soul — through
First impressions
The archetype — the unconscious
Over which
Neither mind — nor body
Has control

One stands — on one’s own
Not because
Of choice — resolve
Hard work
Not through courting —
Pain

Not for —
Hope — possibility
Light —
At the end

Not for the sake —
Of true — or false
Real, or unreal

But through —
Because of —
Knowing — seeing
Somehow —

That life — is already
Forfeit
That pain — is already
The case
That success, failure — already
Are vanities

That — the only power —
There is —
Is emotion — and

By letting — the strongest
The most irrational
Unstoppable
Of them —

To light —
The way
