I want words to drown me until I'm out of breath. So when I start writing, I could easily pick out the words and form a land full of colors and metaphors.

I want words to envelope my being. So I could tell the right things.

I want words to bind around my body like chains so when I promise something, I wouldn't run away.

I want words to be violent and gentle at the same time, so the truth wouldn't hurt a lot.

But words couldn't give me the reassurance.

In the end, I couldn't say the right things.

In the end, I remained silent.

In the end, I can only pick meaningless words.
