Tiled walls' sweat with grime and the rhythmic rumble of trains vibrates through the soles of your shoes. Crowds surge and recede like tides, an endless cycle of brief collisions and silent avoidance. For a brief moment, everyone shares the same breath, suspended over the yawning dark between platform and rail. When the train doors shut and the roar fades, replaced with a studied silence. The air hums with secrets: lovers’ whispers, a stray busker’s tune, a warning shouted too late.
