The hurt never fades: just because we don't visit the graveyard anymore doesn't mean the people aren't still dead. It is saddening to know that the strength we have gained in the pursuit of happiness will serve none, even though the cards lay in our hands, even though we have been blessed with eternal night. We're all addicted to the one thing that brings us home, that drives the ghosts away. But addiction never ends well. Because whehn all the moves are played, all the games are lost, what used to get us so high, only causes us the most pain.
