Failure

How can a place so full of people
Be so fucking empty?

How can a location so beautiful and sacred
Be so fucking ugly?

How can a song so wonderful
Provoke me to tears?

How can words express so much
Yet say so fucking little?

How can a person so full of life
Be so fucking dead inside?

Words fail.

People fail.

I fail.
