expectations (demands) that we hold for the actions of others.
We "know" that there is a right way to do things,

So what happened? That person with the cute smile
was not much more than a mirror for the hopes and dreams
of the one in love with love.

When truly necessary, violence met with violence -
but never hate responded to with hate.

burdened by the projections of the future,
