Listening is all about the vibrations,

wishing to pick up the melodies,
unaware of the sound,
laughter to be heard,
but only hearing the arguments

Capable to focus at the moment,
detecting images, light, and varying colors,
all of a sudden it vanishes.
Darkness replacing,
while unconsciously adapting to the world.

Tasting the sorrow,
different substances, minerals, and poisons,
widespread textures or temperatures could lead to society’s acceptance.

While touching my skin,
I’m able to feel a tingling pressure,
the numbness decays into damages.

Chemicals each binding to a particular feature,
a variety expresses more or less,
traces of a murky scent roll in
as they breath in the cold crisp air.
