stinging nettle

by Nicole M. - Gemini

tempered laughs 
settle into
twisted silk
 desperate
  to bring
sanity to salvation
  as
 lucid smiles 
crawl
towards horizons
   neglecting
a fading
    purpose
 
centered
  in a mob
of souls covered
  in 
good intentions
   loneliness still
lingers
within those few
      empty
  millimeters
and empathy
   cannot 
thrive in those
   tiny
wastelands
