A guppy fish the kids call Reebok is left alone in a tank in a school classroom after his tankmate, Nike, jumped to her death out of the tank. He feels lost and alone. Then he meets the quiet one, a girl at the school. She's different from all the other kids. She's not noisy or loud. She doesn't sit funny on her chair. She always listens when the teacher is talking. And she really likes Reebok. Can Reebok learn how to move on from his grief? Can the world get better, after all?

She's a lost soul, searching for Froot Loops in a world of Cheerios. Emotions. Inflicted by words, Creating signals to connect those emotions. A pang in your heart, the dull ache of love, a tedious, meaningless thing to some. The entire thing to others. Confusing, at the least. All consuming, at the most. We bundle it inside, Hide it in boxes, In the deepest crevices of our persona, Then suddenly, it burst free, tumbling into the atmosphere, filling every hour, every moment. Words convey it. Words share it. Through words, our emotions are liberated. Disclaimer: I wrote this throughout the course of a year. It had its ups and it's down in emotion. It ends on a happy note, I think. It has some overdramatic things in which my past self annoys me sometimes. But it also has some good pieces of thought. The world sucks. I can't promise that it's not going to suck, Because it probably always will. But there will be times Where the good in the world Makes it suck a little less.
