Japan...the exotic far east....
Closetted from the outside world for far too long, I was not aware of the harsh realities lurking the corridors. I had never heard of romance scams, never knew they existed.
Had never entertained the thought of seeking a partner online, was never curious about such services; who would be interested in the profile of mine?
Who is this man I hardly know!
My experience is not any more unique. It is a storyto be told, a warning to others, a chapter of reality rarely uncovered.
How did I end up here I find it difficult to fathom...perhaps in working back through the recent course of events may clarify the bewilderment remaining...
What sucked me in?
What pulled me tight?
What trapped my mind, believing that this was right?
An escape, my way out...how delicious it tasted,
How susceptible was my spirit to the conundrum awaiting...
When at the tipping point our reactions become irrational, our perspective warped and twisted, the filter be coated with rose-colored tint.
This world, where interplanetary connections network indiscriminately, preys on the frailty of systems. With modern tools at hand, they stealthily encroach, the system we entrust only loosely securing the surface. What we will discover is yet to be revealed, by not pursuing this notion, have we failed to really live?
