I can't sleep. I try, but I only end up staring out the window. I have finals in the morning so I should probably sleep. The world's a big place, isn't it? We're tiny little speckles in a humongous universe yet we all have separate minds. We're part of the universe but we have no clue how it works.

Maybe I'm too selfish. Is that it? Can I only think about my sliver of the universe? Is that why I'm so lonely?

Maybe everybody is too focused on their piece of the universe to find another persons universe and sew them together.

I've tried to do it before, but all my stitches came loose. Our universes fell apart from each other time and time again.

Maybe that's how it's to be. I am destined to be lonely. My sliver is from the darkest reaches of the universe, and as we all know, darkness does not work well with light. Light will always outshine darkness. The darkness will fade away into nothingness.

Nothingness I will be.
