A Eulogy to a Tragedy

This book is the physical manifestation of the grief that haunts him during the day.
A compilation of the late-night thoughts that stole his sleep.
It is the demons of his mind that were sealed in this book.
It is the devils of his heart that were banished into this book.
The darkest thoughts, given form, and deathly musings, given life. 
The hymns of a broken soul.
The unsavoury and immoral lust for flesh.
The unwilling penitence for the sin of love.

Dive into deep into the void, succumb to the abyss, where the deprivation of love, the disapproval from society, dissatisfaction with oneself, discontentment with others, and how religious beliefs, corrupts what once a jovial individual, into a twisted and malevolent being.
Even so, to him, this is indeed the liberation of his soul.

This is the book, which reveals true vulnerability, cloaked under false strength.

A story laced tearfully into a collection of poems and prose, of repressed desires and forbidden love, a burden of carrying a disease deemed to be a taboo, and of recurring haunting wishes, for suicide and death.
