If the world was ending what would I say to you?
Nothing.

I would say nothing to you because I don't know you.
But I want to.
I have said minimal words to you within the duration of time in which the world wasn't ending; but I have also said thousands.

All the times my gaze has locked on you from across the room I have said,
"Please notice me"
"Turn your head"
"look at me first"

All of the times when I have attempted to catch your eyes when you're speaking.
I have said,
"I hear you"
"Look me in the eyes"
"I enjoy talking to you"

Every gesture
Every glance
Every mention
Every time I have uttered your name

If the world was ending i would say nothing to you because I have already spoken thousands of words to you,
And you never respond.
So why would you if the world was ending?
