it used to be so easy to translate feelings into flowing sentences and pretty phrases.

now it just sounds hollow.

as if the more eloquent you are, the less sincere you become,
and the words no longer mean anything.

because some emotions aren't pretty.
most thoughts aren't gentle.

they're harsh
and once voiced, cannot be taken back.
once heard, cannot be erased.
once felt, cannot be forgotten.

but why should it matter, right?
i mean, aren't we all really only looking out for ourselves?
