I was taught that being stubborn
is a virtue that every young boy should have,
that to decide how you govern
your life and your path.
I was taught that being stubborn
is simply a way to be,
that wanting and yearning
provided my journey's fee.
I was taught that being stubborn
was a sign of respect, of pride.
Unlearn all that'd been thought
and learn all from inside.
I was taught that being stubborn
would create a wall around me,
a nocturne of darkness
for which only i could see.
Now i am alone, all stubborn and virtuous
wishing for a chance.
but this disease is cure-less
Through no other circumstance.
