an interview with myself

Sometimes the sole person you can talk to is the one person that truly, fully understands you as well.

Me: It must be pretty frustrating to be you.
Me2: It must be pretty frustrating to be you.
Me: It’s not very pretty, but it is frustrating sometimes.
Me2: Yes, I’d say…
Me: You’d say?
Me2: Okay, we’ll say, only occasionally...
Me: As opposed to?
Me2: May I finish.
Me: May you?
Me2: I may and I will say that most of the time I, we, are pretty happy with who we are.
Me: So, in this mode we’re pretty?
Me2: Yes, beautiful actually.
Me: For beauty is in the eye of the beholder:
Me2: Yes. For felicity is nothing less than pretty and all the more beautiful when emanating, embraced and nurtured by oneself.
Me: You talk pretty.
Me2: Thanks. And who knows, maybe one day you can as articulate too.

"Sometimes me cry alone at night."
"That be common for I, also, but be more strong, you. Much work and someday you talk pretty. People start love you soon.
Maybe tomorrow, okay."
