Stop!

Whoever said it was easy? No matter how smart you are.
No matter how many times before. The mind hurts more than the heart.
Did you know that? Of course not.

We're all old school. Safe in our knowledge of the mind being an emotionless reservoir of the rational,that can be reasoned away to perfection,every detail as it should be.

As it must be.

Let the heart stew,not your concern. Let the flesh revolt in contempt,let the years bring fresh layers of memory to stifle the old. Let new laughter drown the old. Let old habits drown the new.
Let mindless diversion replace that once cherished feeling of being alive - truly, completely, selflessly, like you always wanted, and believe in no more.

Or can you stand no more?

'Humankind can't bear too much reality' can they?
Depends on your pain threshold.
Depends on all those gym sessions where you built up enough muscle to break those chains one day.
Blame it on bad equipment. Blame it on the gods, blame it on the courage you never had, blame it on an unfair world which told you what to do.

Its quite simple really, just be you.
