Sum Of The Outcome
Our greatest lessons are ascertained via losses
Only the strong survive to thrive on like bosses
The cost is steep as we weep over the slain
Searching our brains for answers to ease the pain
Trying to refrain from going down a destructive path
Suffering and hurting from living as an empath
Doing the math on the beaten path of the situation
Knowing the sum of the outcome from prior equations

Powerful write and great rhyme scheme. It conveys so much of the struggle most people have inwardly but we're all in control of our decisions and actions.

I read this right after commentating on your on your other contribution where I expressed regrets of participating in violent civil disobedience perpetrated during my youth.
Thank you for these wise words of restraint.

Quite possibly but history speaks for itself. We come to expect certain outcomes based off of previous sums that habitually happened. An unforeseen variable would be an anomaly.
