Devil's Advocate

if you are tired with words,
why do use the words yourself?

why am i using words myself?
why?

because we are far from each other now.
because i cannot touch you.
because i am a slave of the word.
because i can never be free.
because i am not at all human
without the word itself.

the irony is here. Let me hide then.
the paradox is here. Let me live.
