This aging silence
Too many times we've explored its lonely architecture
Aborted missives lost in the haze of fears and doubts
Though the wounded faith and passion persisted
We accepted frail victories
And sadly, documented monumental failures
Once mistook it for a bad dream
Two worlds ceased yet continued
Navigating a broken path lacking in purpose
Or direction
Why should any of this matter?
No life altering sacrifices being offered
From me
From you.
