I don't post this kind of thing; I'm not like this usually, but I got really scared just now. I think of you... yea... you on the other side of this great machine we the human race built. Some of us hoped it would bring us closer, but it also showed us sides of each-other we could not reconcile or abide. And in doing so we are making, again, the kingdoms of old; far apart and fearful. But I know you are there on the other side, I believe it. If this is all a simulation, oh well... but I choose to believe you are there. We are here. I am here. It's not hard. It's real. This is all real, and it is happening everywhere on this planet all at once. You are somewhere- So very far, yet so close and just out of reach. I can almost see you- reading this. Don't be afraid. I can't and I won't hurt you. Maybe if you try very hard, you can almost see me... ... ... Hi :') So many things are happening around us. The world and this life is a most terrifying splendor. I have heard the voices, and read the words of so many people in my time talking to you through this great machine. I have felt such jollity and such thrills... and also I have felt such anger and sadness as we talked. I have stated opinions, and you have stated yours. We have argued, we have bickered... We have hated one another... and we've simmered in that silence after. we've also felt such loneliness in those times. Loneliness is sometimes ever present... We asks ourselves, 'why would they do this?' and 'How could they?' and in that cold and bitter loneliness, something beautiful and wonderful and cruel happens. ...We find each-other again! :') We find pieces of ourselves in each-other. The things we always hoped were there. I look at the world outside and I come to you my friends and ask you a question I hope you have the answer to, but that I fear you don't. Because if I can have that fear so can you... If I could reach, I'd pull you close, I'd tell you it's going to be ok, I'd tell you we are here, we are still here and we can still do this. What do we do? How do we stop this maddening cycle? I think the answer is Love; but I just don't know!! How could you Love me?! How could I love you?! After all we have done, after all we've said! After all the pain we've caused each-other! What more will we do? No, we can't just end it! Put it down! ... Please! It can't be over, we have so much! we've accomplished so much. We've touched the stars with but the very tips of our fingers... We've reached into realms of both agony and ecstasy. Our world cracks beneath us from the pains of our ascendance, and our collective scars in hatred and in kinship outnumber us all. No More... Please whatever you believe, [i]help me[/i]... let me help [i]you[/i] if I can. Lets put these horrible things down, we've seen what they do, we've seen how much pain they have brought and we've been here, [b]HERE[/b], right -blam!- [b]HERE[/b], before. Im sorry... how many times have I said that word? I know it's going to be filtered... But I know you can see it, and I know you can hear me. I Think your just like me, with a lot of wonderful, terrible and beautiful differences. I am afraid of you... And if I'm right, you might actually be afraid of me too. Maybe it's too imperceptible for you to feel but I think it's there. And I don't want it to be. Because I don't know what I'd do without you. fearing you loving you hating you needing you Who are you? Who am I? [i]How can we do this?[/i] Please, [url=https://image.shutterstock.com/image-vector/no-war-sign-on-white-600w-181978076.jpg]No more[/url] Please Please... Please... ... please- I beg of you [spoiler]I beg you[/spoiler] please [spoiler]... ok... i feel better.[/spoiler]
