From a young age, Romeo and Juliet
told us that without our other half
we are incomplete.

That we need another's validation,
and that happy endings are the rule.

That our happiness depends on another.
And if we conform, the system
will benefit us, and you will lead
a happier life.

So many relationships are full
of contempt, while others fall out of love.
All because we tried to love,
without learning self-love.
