i wanted to start by telling you who i am, but the truth is that i have no idea. i know that i'm not like most people, because most people have feelings, and for most of my life i've not really felt anything.
i've tried to be like everyone else. i look like everyone else, talk like everyone else, go to the corner shop to get the milk like everyone else, but theres something missing. its something so primal and deep that it leaves a hollow space where that part of me should be.
i've never known who i am, yet at the same time i have always known what i'm not.
i'm not like you.
i spent the first 23 years of my life just existing, but i want to spend the rest of my life living.
