(NOTE: It’s an essay written by a relatively young man. Its wistful tone has so touched me that I stopped many beats between reading the words in the piece, rummaging answers to what has gone awry in this young man’s journey. I decided to publish this, no edits, with his permission, in the hope that some readers could relate with my son’s plaint.)
