Words

I've always loved words, its sounds and meanings. Is there anything lighter than "airiness"? Or noisier than "roar" or "boisterous" or "bellow" or "bawl"? "Fugacious" flicker like a flame. "Frail" trembles with the lightest touch. "Aloof" parades with its nose in the air. And "frost" makes me shiver with cold.

I have been looking for the right words to describe the feelings of today in an objective, dispassionate way. I haven't gone very far. I don't seem to find a better term for "emptiness", or something less pathetic for "hopelessness".
