Can anyone think of similar poetic representation of the following piece in Chinese? Is it translatable?

i am control and the uncontrollable
i am the union and the dissolution
i am the abiding and i am the dissolution
i am the one below
and they come up to me
in an ideal reality, one would find comfort from his fellow man.
unfortunately for me, this is not the case.
i cannot bring myself to love you.
there is a reason for this but i am not comfortable telling you.
the problem lies not in my inability to love.
the problem lies in my inability to love anyone else.
no, i do not love myself.
i can say with a great deal of confidence that i love someone.
of course, i could be wrong.
there is always the possibility that my ideals are less than perfect.
therefore there is a contingency.
if in the event that i do not love anyone, the solution is simple.
don't pretend you haven't thought this way before.
it's not depression.
it's a logical conclusion given certain conditions.
these conditions, of course, have not been met.
so i continue not to love anyone else as a result of this conclusion.
i haven't really explained myself yet, have i?
in essence, all my love goes to this individual who is not myself.
i have no extra to distribute amongst others.
call it taking a simple cliche to an extreme.
call it unhealthy.
call it unjust.
i am merely a man whose thoughts are either completely true or utterly false.
i am a man of extremes if you will.
sometimes this can work contrary to most social relationships.
i do my best to appear interested.
since i can't care, i can't treat others differently.
you are all the same.
it may appear that i give more respect to some over others.
this is called acting.
this is called me doing my best to still appear human.
in order to continue living for my love, i must remain calm.
i must abide by certain social rules.
i hope i'm doing a good job.
when people criticize my behavior, i listen.
i also pretend not to care.
i don't care, but i must pretend not to care.
i do still listen.
i'm taking notes, constantly reassessing my personality as it appears.
i've lost what might be called my own personality.
i am no longer who i was.
i am the sum of thousands of constructive critiques on behavior.
somehow i still am not quite right.
i do my best to appear interested.
i apologize if i am not doing my best.
