the soul has no words for a sadness so powerful that compels me to sleep to protect myself from being awake. the body cannot explain a hunger so great and yet tragic because no amount of food can satisfy the spirit of its emptiness.
no one will check either, if i do slip quietly away. isn't that funny? i did overestimate my importance to others, maybe that was my own arrogance. he showed me that. my world view has been humbling since.
what does a person write as their last words when it's not worth the paper it's written on? i don't know. ive stared down the barrel and maybe silence is the best answer.
