i've tried writing beautiful words that are able to move souls just by an eye stroll through a paper filled with nothing more than letters and i've tried creating art by provoking these twists that look incredibly sweet on your lips just by the action of articulating jaw bones and mouth muscles with the help of vocal chords that somehow find the perfect pitch for pronouncing your name and the process may sound exhausting but it's actually extremely simple and generates astonishing results when performed correctly

i've tried gently touching the hidden corners of any heart that's not completely alive just by letting it feel there exists a reason to breathe through vivid images captured by a time machine which makes seconds last eternally and has the power of making feelings flow like rivers

i’ve tried to replicate the exact shade of your eyes just by flooding a vacant piece of fabric with glowing pigmentation and i’ve tried matching your weightless spirit just by drifting to the pulse of your most cherished melodic set of echoes

yet i’m not trying hard enough
mediocrity runs
the nearest
subway station

morbidity owns
the city's favorite
salad restaurant

cowardice floods
the sink of
every public restroom

fear flows out
of the sewer
down the street

these factors consume
my daily routine

— The End —
