I would like to meet someone;
Who knows the world,
More than they know themselves.
Someone who;
Sees street signs as famous quotes,
And counts their heart beats on their finger tips;
I would like to meet someone who;
Appreciates rain as a scientific anomaly,
But believes that the sun was created in a tool shed.
Someone who;
Can recognise failure as an absolute,
And success as conditional.
I would like to meet someone who;
Measures love by the length of oceans,
And hate with a 30cm ruler.
Someone who;
Knows that 24 hours in a day is simply not long enough,
But isn't afraid to waste time.
Most of all, I would like to meet someone;
Who I have never met before.
