you smile a bit like stalagmites and i'm not quite sure what to make of it. like crystals in underground caves, born during the earth's violent beginning. not technically anything special really (just a rod of shiny carbon) but actually yes, extremely important and very special and awe-inspiring and why were you hiding all this time? and i am convinced you came from someplace else, somewhere far away... but then i think that really everyone's the same, everyone's just someone but someone who's awe-inspiring. so maybe i'm the one from another place where things just aren't as impressive as they are here, but also not as frightening. yes, you frighten me but so does everyone, just a bit. maybe you're just a bit of everything and i'm just a bit of nothing.

it's a little bit funny when you think about it.

  6. Nobody can be nothing. All of us are something. We are not void spaces or blank pages. We are rather books, thick ones with tiny writing in every inch.
