We caught up on our latest findings on top of the quiet hill.

"If 'nothing' is something that is non-existent, then why do we have a name for it? Obviously 'nothing' is a thing." You said.

My feelings for you are a thing, but if you don't know it, then is it nothing? Can I even call it anything?

"Does a pair of socks exist, or are there just two socks?" That one made me laugh.

"A pair of socks." Only because I desperately want there to be a pair of us. 

"The whole earth is just a cycle. Everything is recycled. If my cells are made up of recycled atoms, then wouldn't I be as old as Earth?" I questioned after a moment of silence. Maybe parts of us were molecules from the same thing that lived in the ancient times.

Max, looking at you beside me, I knew you had the power to complete me.
