You are the hero,
The main character,
The one trying to hold the story together in your shaking hands,
Our lives are just like books,
Filled with numerous chapters,
Could be disasters,
You are the story,
You are my story,
I am the protagonist,
Yet also the antagonist,
A blessing and a curse dropped into your lap,
I know that you will overcome your enemies in the end,
I bite my tongue even though its hurting,
I keep your secrets till my chest is burning,
That's usually a goodish enough storyline that melts the audience,
But people like myself who do not melt sees the true sadness in the lack of melting,
We do not melt because we have been melted ao much that we went for an operation and we came out transformed,
We are now metal,
And I'm sorry to disappoint that antagonist/antagonist who becomes a protagonist,
But the best I would ever be able to do to you is to warm your heart.
Most animals can-not choose,
They have to breed once yearly,
They must all try to remain viable.
Tiny species will need larger litters,
As tiny babes can, maybe, get eaten!
Lion's only fear, human's
An unknown male lion to.
New males, if not defeated will slay kits.
Hardship imposed for a goodish reason.
Good main reason, survival of all life.
Insects, invertebrates, small.
Breed in their many millions.
Natures recyclers, O some that is sure.
Some pollinators, most flora helpers.
Not all flora, the wind, a great helper.
Pollen blown, on a warm breeze!
Great chance to create new life.
Humans have sex for pleasure, not for life.
Strife, rife if unprotected, single mom's.
Not saying it is wrong, let sense prevail.
Commonsense, to reason first
For all sake your children's life
