Nothing. My body is made of nothing. I have no limit. No edge to hold myself apart from the rest of the world. My body is the world as the world is my body. There is nothing separating us. I am nothing, but I am also everything.

I can't feel anything. My bones shatter against the pavement as heels come crashing down on me. My body weeps crimson tears the blade leaves behind.I lie still and watch a single drop fall from the knifes edge and flower slowly beside my head. Even as battered as I am I feel no pain. My blood does not leave me but continues to flow into the world.

What am I? I'm alive, this body can die then right? Then how come I can't feel pain? I'm not numb, I can see emotion inside of me. Emotions....they are emotions that do not belong to me. They come from the woman I hold in my arms as we sit on the mountaintop and gaze into eternity. She is happy that we are here, sad that she can not help me, angry that people say what they want about me.

I know this. I can see this. Then why do I not care. I show her a smile and hold her closer. She can feel happiness and reassurance from me. She doesn't realize that it's her own emotions being returned through me.

She turns and looks up at me with her shallow green eyes that hunger for me. As the look deeper I see something else. Something beyond emotions. Beyond feeling. I see her love. My heart stops and I am left amazed. I am amazed by her love and the depths it comes from, but most of all I am shocked that I could feel my heart. My heart....It is mine. It is who I am. I can feel from it the love I have for all. I can see my love for her rising and giving me life. My smile changes from the usual smirk of happiness so fake i wonder how no one can see it, into a small xmile of love made from genuine and true love.

I kiss her. Not deeply, but not briefly either. I simply kiss her and let her know that I love her. I truly love her. She has shown me that I have a heart and I can feel love as well as give it. I can do nothing in this lifetime to let her know how great a gift that is. i can love. I know I love but I can also feel it. Love for everything. I know what I am.

I am the worlds heart and I hold love for all.

I love you. Remember that.
