“are you really insane

jasey rae?”

i asked the beautiful maiden

as we got out of the prison.

“aren’t we all

ashton irwin?

the horrible truth hides itself

beneath all the masks

humans put on.

we are all insane.

some people are just

a tiny bit more insane

than others.”

 

“well

dayuum girl.”

she laughed a real laugh.

the ones that don’t

sound too high or too low

or too small or too loud

or too fake.

“you got that right, irwin.”

“you’re very different,

i like that.”

 

“why are you here, irwin?

i know i said

that everyone is insane

but you’re too insane.”

she smiled.

i looked at jasey

she was waiting

biting her lip

hands in her pocket

with her eyes gleaming.

 

“i fell in love with the thought of oblivion.

and shutting myself out of our society.”

i told her.

her reply made my heart skip a beat.

“we’d make a good pair, then.”
