the necessity of Fact -
stripped of all emotion,
in what is now, merely,
a convenient retrospect.
a building of idealism
and the predictability
of our reactions made ever word
excusable.

cliche, yes.

and what gets tangled
in unspoken words
and misunderstood action -
light-trails open
to interpretation,

i filled a void,
i, a surrogate need.
i filled a void,
i, a blackout soundboard
i filled a void,
i, a space of warmth.

the necessity of Fact -
the bold need to draw the lines
that separate us.
