Are you there?
                Yes, I believe you are.
Are you surprised?
                No, I don't think so.
The tie is still there. It grows stronger every day.
Are we alike?
                No you say.
Yes we are. It scares me, but what goes through your mind also goes through mine.
Will we ever part?
                This I leave up to you.
Are you crazy?
                I hope not, because if one is, both are.
Why are you different when we're alone?
                You can't hide your feelings.
Are you lonely?
                It's normal.
Do I care?
                More than you could possibly know.
When did I realize this?
                The first time I saw you.
Can I read your thoughts?
                The eyes are windows to the mind, and soul.
Are you good?
                In all darkness there is an inner light.
Will you destroy yourself?
                Then you destroy us both.
How will life treat us?
                However we want it to.
What am I to you?
                Maybe I'm your guardian angel.
What do I think?
                I think you are a kindred spirit.
Can I tell you these things?
                Soul to soul?
Will you laugh?
                I hope not.
What does this mean?
                I love you, my kindred spirit.
