How do I put it like it hasn't been before? How do I say it without it tumbling into a bore? How do I pronounce, in one word, what has to be heard? How do I write in ways it will not be forgotten? Is it metaphores like birds and flying? Is it with fire of dire rhyming? Is it rambling about loving or dying or even such harsh expressions it is lying? With bodies, with intertwining eyes, if not the rotting of a heart. I'd try with poems, paintings and precious works of art. But its purpose remains absent like a dead language in the present.

Why would you?

Needless to say, people think it's useless but it's not.
