In order to exist
silence needs noise
and noise needs silence
but they will never admit
to liking each other.

Yup. I almost made this poem longer to include more things that needed each other but decided to leave it like this.

Hahaha Stephen Peacocke says it in “Me Before You” and it was SO WEIRD. Mr. Jess laughed for a solid 10 minutes after the fact. You could probably YouTube that too. But say it in an Australian accent. It’s much funnier.

To get into an Australian accent I always have to say “kangaroo” first to remind myself what it sounds like. I’m watching the trailer hoping he says it…Emilia Clarke just showed up. #triggered Ah I don’t think it made the trailer.

Dang it! Yeah I tried to find it but I couldn’t. At least you got to see Emilia Clark. She’s such a doll.
