existing is hard today. its been hard every day. but im still here. does that say something? can i say anything?
somewhere the sun is rising, and someone will see it for the first time. there's so much more ahead of them. i plead that the universe stays kind. if i could do nothing else, i wish them—i wish you—a good life.
in every encounter you'll share a piece of yourself. and to be known is to be loved, and maybe i don't know you well; but i hope the love of this stranger finds you well. i hope you find warmth in your life as well. good luck, good luck, and a million things besides.
and i hope for you the best, even after time ends. and while we may never meet, i hope life lets you stand. may your dreams be good and your weather appealing. your food at the right temperature and your blankets warming. may you find yourself laughing and crying and feeling. may you find yourself living and learning and breathing.
i love you, i love you, i love you; my voice repeats what everyone says. we are coincidences made from stardust; even if our lives are insignificant, i'm happy you're my friend. you are the player, the universe, and love. even sun and moon and stars admire your existence from above.
all this to say: thank you for keeping me company.
