"We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love."

The naturalness ends
Everything is not right
Sifting on the sands that i now call home
Dawn arrives and it brings war
The sand turns firey red
The flames lick at me
I run onto a boulder
The flames enchant me, licking at the rock
The sun sets
The fire is dead
The sand is not red
I step down onto the cool sand
Then I search
For anyone
Someone.
This is how I live.
