What is memory?
I don’t know, I’m trying to remember.

What is love?
I hate how hard the answer is.

What is laughter?
I’m seriously trying to find that out.

What is a dream?
The pillow told me so till I woke up in fear.

What is hope?
I’ve given up on finding the answer.

What is light?
I don’t know, it left me blind.

What is despair?
Don’t worry, you’ll find the answer some day.

What is pride?
I’m so stupid, I’m sorry, I don’t know about it.

What is loneliness?
We don’t know, but we can help in your quest.

What is feeling?
It’s everything here you’ve been reading.
