Your words grow heavy the sparser they become, and slippery as well. I'm wandering still, looking for a pain that feels closer to the "soul". I'm desperate now, I can taste his sweat on you but I say nothing. Everyone's alone, but it's a human concept to be so lonely. Everyone's dying without any dignity, soulless and divine. Everyone's silent under the deafening sound of thought in practice. Everyone's losing, and we've only learned how to fetishize the pain.

"Sharp Rocks, Dull Steel."
Your words grow heavy the sparser they become, and slippery as well. I'm wandering still, looking for a pain that feels closer to the "soul". I'm desperate now, I can taste his sweat on you but I say nothing. Everyone's alone, but it's a human concept to be so lonely. Everyone's dying without any dignity, soulless and divine. Everyone's silent under the deafening sound of thought in practice. Everyone's losing, and we've only learned how to fetishize the pain.
Written for someone else, I imagine.
