In knowing you, little by little, I cannot deny,

 That the flaw was not in your nature but in the culture in making of you-

that shaped you, how you act, how you behave. 

It couldn’t be unseen.

Only after all this accumulating time,

did I understand the depth of the cultural decay horrendously affecting you. 

A spectacle so repellent, 

So, unattractive that stirs only revulsion. 

Problem upon problem, 

One issue after another, 

As if an endless trope of shortcomings- a legacy of neglect, a culture that repulses the beloved. 

And, since you have come across my path, 

Standing on the crossroads, I can feel a fierce disdain within me for you. 

Contempt for the cultural atmosphere that made you a tyrant- a shallow scallop.  

I strongly detest it with all my might, 

I feel the abhorrence not only for you but the culture that shaped you.

Audacity

Oh, the audacity of leaving the person you love! To walk away with steady feet, While their heart still trembles

Nostalgia

 Why do I lose people?!  Why it has to be me always? Losing my people for the circumstances, For deliberate
